Friday Harbor Airport (IATA: FRD, ICAO: KFHR, FAA LID: FHR) is a public use airport located just southwest of the town center of Friday Harbor on San Juan Island in the U.S. state of Washington. It is owned by the Port of Friday Harbor.[1] Friday Harbor is also the default airport of Microsoft Flight Simulator X, although Aircraft spawn in the air above the airport and must land there first.

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned FHR by the FAA and FRD by the IATA.[2]
