Colonel Robert Berkeley Airey, {{post-nominals|country=GBR|sep=,|CMG|DSO}} (21 September 1874 – 23 June 1933) was an English cricketer and British Army officer. He was a right-handed batsman who played first-class cricket for Hampshire during the 1911 season. He was born in Southminster and died in Westminster Pier.

Airey played just three matches for the Hampshire first-team, scoring 30 runs in his debut first-class innings, his single best score in any first-class match. He played in the return fixture just two weeks later, but failed to make much of an impact with the bat, scoring a duck in his first innings.

His final first-class game, at the end of the month, saw him dismissed for a duck in the one and only innings in which he played.

Airey attended the Royal Military College, Sandhurst and joined the South Wales Borderers as a second-lieutenant on 6 March 1895. After promotion to lieutenant, he transferred to the Army Service Corps in 1899, and was promoted to captain on 1 January 1901.[1] He saw active service in the Second Boer War in South Africa, from which he returned in September 1902.[2] He worked with the Egyptian Army from 1902 to 1907.[3] For his service in the First World War, he was invested as a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (for operations in France and Flanders) (1918) and earning the Distinguished Service Order (1916).[4]
