Groton-New London Airport (IATA: GON, ICAO: KGON) is a state-owned public-use airport located three miles (5 km) southeast of the central business district (CBD) of Groton, a town located in New London County, Connecticut, USA. It serves the southeastern Connecticut region, including the shoreline localities of Groton, New London, and Mystic.

In 2004, Pan Am Clipper Connection suspended operations at the airport, leaving it without any form of scheduled commercial passenger service. However there are two charter airlines serving the airport.
