Zorg en Hoop Airport (IATA: ORG, ICAO: SMZO) is an airport located in the city of Paramaribo, Suriname. The runway length is only sufficient for smaller aircraft; thus, airlines operating mainline jet aircraft serve Paramaribo via Johan Adolf Pengel International Airport located 45 kilometres (28 mi) south of the city at Zanderij. Zorg en Hoop Airport is located between the city quarters of Zorg en Hoop and Flora. The airport is suitable for charters and regular services with smaller aircraft, and for helicopter flights. From the airport, the connection is maintained with several smaller airports in the interior of Suriname and for charter flights to the Caribbean.

History
In October 1952, the airport was put into use when Ronald Kappel and Herman van Eyck started a first Surinamese air company. The first flight was made with a Stinson V-77 Reliant airplane with registration PZ-TAA (MSN 77-167) of the company Kappel-van Eyck. In November 1952 this company built the first hangar at Zorg en Hoop airfield and added a second Stinson Reliant airplane (PZ-TAB) to their fleet. In the summer of 1953 Zorg en Hoop Airport was used to develop many airstrips in the interior. The first mail delivery and passenger flights in Suriname were made from Zorg en Hoop to Moengo on 22 August 1953 and to Coronie on September 28th. Later also to Nickerie and Albina with the new Piper Cub (PZ-NAC) of Kappel-van Eyck named "Colibri".
