Erfurt-Weimar Airport, Commercial airport in Erfurt, Germany
Erfurt-Weimar Airport is a commercial airport serving the region with a 2,600-meter (8,500-foot) runway and a two-level passenger terminal. The facility handles both domestic and international flights with standard amenities for connecting travelers.
The site was established in 1935 as a Luftwaffe military base near Bindersleben and served defense purposes during the war. After World War II, the facility was converted to civilian aviation operations.
The airport's name was expanded in 2011 to reflect connections to two important German cities with deep cultural roots. Signage throughout the terminal makes this dual identity immediately visible to travelers.
A tram line connects the terminal directly to Erfurt's main train station with service approximately every 10 to 20 minutes during the day. This connection makes reaching the airport without a car straightforward.
The airport operates seasonal charter flights to Mediterranean destinations through carriers like Aegean Airlines, Corendon Airlines, and SunExpress. These routes provide direct access to beach destinations during peak travel months.
