Lumbia Airport (Filipino: Paliparan ng Lumbia, Cebuano: Tugpahanan sa Lumbia) (IATA: CGY, ICAO: RPML), also known as Cagayan de Oro Airport, is an airport serving the general area of Cagayan de Oro City, located in the province of Misamis Oriental in the Philippines. It is the currently the third-busiest airport in Mindanao, after after Francisco Bangoy International Airport in Davao City and Zamboanga International Airport. It is also the only airport in Misamis Oriental. The airport is classified as a trunkline airport, or a major commercial domestic airport, by the Air Transportation Office, a body of the Department of Transportation and Communications that is responsible for the operations of not only this airport but also of all other airports in the Philippines except the major international airports.

The airport takes its name from its location, Barangay Lumbia in Cagayan de Oro.

Lumbia Airport is set to be replaced by the larger Laguindingan International Airport, currently under construction in the municipality of Laguindingan, some 46 kilometers southwest of Cagayan de Oro. Construction should be completed by 2011.
