Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrénées Airport, Commercial airport in Ossun, France

The Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrénées Airport spans across the municipalities of Ossun, Louey, Juillan, and Azereix, featuring a 3000-meter runway suitable for large aircraft operations.

The airport, inaugurated in May 1948, received its first Boeing 707 aircraft in 1967, marking the beginning of its expansion into international aviation services.

The facility gained recognition in 1983 when Pope John Paul II arrived for his first visit to Hautes-Pyrénées, greeted by President François Mitterrand.

The airport terminal covers 14,400 square meters across two levels, offering free parking facilities and direct access from the A64 motorway.

In 1978, the Concorde supersonic aircraft landed at this airport, demonstrating its capability to handle advanced aviation technology.
