Aarhus Airport (IATA: AAR, ICAO: EKAH) is an international airport located 19.4 nautical miles (35.9 km; 22.3 mi) northeast[2] of Aarhus, Denmark.

History

The airfield was established in 1943 by German occupying forces in World War II and was later used as a Cold War military base for the Danish and other allied airforces until the 1990s. The airport still contains a small military depot and plays host to occasional training exercises; the last NATO exercise was in 2007.[3]

The current passenger terminal dates from 1981 with renovations performed between 2007 and 2009 and again in late 2016.[4] Since 1946, the airport has carried civilian traffic and is the primary gateway for Aarhus, located 40 km from the city centre via the Djursland motorway. Since December 2016, the local authority of Aarhus Kommune is the major shareholder in the airport,[5]

The airport carried 500,490 passengers in 2019.[6]

In March 2021, a construction project was announced.[7] The project is scheduled to be completed in 2022. It includes a new hotel and increases terminal floor area from 5,000 m2 (54,000 sq ft) to 10,000 m2 (110,000 sq ft). Three new gates will be built so the airport has seven in total.

Facilities

The airport is at an elevation of 25 metres (82 ft) above mean sea level. It has two runways: 10R/28L is 2,702 by 45 metres (8,865 ft × 148 ft) and 10L/28R is 2,777 by 23 metres (9,111 ft × 75 ft).[2]
