Lošinj Airport (IATA: LSZ, ICAO: LDLO) is a privately owned public airport 3.2 nautical miles (5.9 km) from Mali Lošinj on the island of Lošinj, Croatia. It is registered for domestic and international traffic.

It is one of three island airports in the country (the other two being Krk island's Rijeka Airport and Brač Airport on the eponymous island).

Overview

The runway is 900 m long and 30 m wide, and is equipped with 1C signalization, according to the ICAO. A non-precision instrument approach using an NDB located near the city is published. The runway and taxiways are paved with asphalt. Two taxiways are positioned at 45° from the runway.

The traffic consists primarily of small aircraft. It was built as a general aviation airport for air sports in 1985 when Croatia was still part of Yugoslavia.[2]

Airlines and destinations

As of February 2021, there are no regular flights scheduled. The sole remaining seasonal route by Silver Air to Lugano is not scheduled for resumption in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
