Henderson Executive Airport (IATA: HSH, ICAO: KHND, FAA LID: HND) is a public airport located in Henderson, 11 miles (18 km) south of the central business district (CBD) of Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. The airport is owned by Clark County and operated by the Clark County Department of Aviation.

Originally known as Sky Harbor Airport, the airport was renamed in 1996 when it was purchased by Clark County to be used as a reliever airport for McCarran International Airport.

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Henderson Executive Airport is assigned HND^[1] by the FAA and HSH^[2] by the IATA (which assigned HND to Haneda Airport in Tokyo, Japan^[3]). The airport's ICAO identifier is KHND^[2][4][5].
