Kinston Regional Jetport (IATA: ISO, ICAO: KISO, FAA LID: ISO), also known as Stallings Field, is a public airport located three miles (5 km) northwest of the central business district (CBD) of Kinston, a city in Lenoir County, North Carolina, USA. The airport has a single runway that is one of the longest in the southeastern United States.[citation needed] It is mostly used for general aviation. The airport is used by charters for college teams traveling to and from East Carolina University in nearby Greenville for athletic events due to Greenville's short runways.

The Kinston Regional Jetport features free parking as well as free wireless Internet access in its terminal. The Jetport's terminal also houses several businesses, including Philbros Gift and Coffee Shop as well as Robert Franchise Transportation, a commercial transportation service. In addition, both Hertz and Enterprise rental car agencies are located in the terminal.
