The Airport Authority is governed under the Airports and Airport Authorities Act (1968-1969).  The Authority is responsible for the management of the international airport on Rarotonga and the domestic airport on Aitutaki. The Airport Authority is recognized as a critical infrastructure asset for the Cook Islands.
