Huslia Airport (IATA: HSL, ICAO: PAHL, FAA LID: HLA) is a state-owned public-use airport located one nautical mile (1.85 km) east of the central business district of Huslia,[1] in the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area of the U.S. state of Alaska.

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned HLA by the FAA[1] and HSL by the IATA[2] (which assigned HLA to Lanseria Airport in Lanseria, South Africa[3]). The airport's ICAO identifier is PAHL.[4]
