Atmautluak Airport (IATA: ATT[3], FAA LID: 4A2) is a state-owned public-use airport located in Atmautluak, in the Bethel Census Area of the U.S. state of Alaska.[1]

As per Federal Aviation Administration records, this airport had 2,613 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2007, an increase of 29% from the 2,018 enplanements in 2006.[2]

The name "Thomas M. Cook Atmautluak International Airport" appears to have been created by a group of local pilots who found humor in referring to the remote Alaskan village airport as an international destination. It is frequently heard referred to as such on the local CTAF, 122.9.
