Blackpool Airport

Blackpool Airport, at Squires Gate, opened in 1909 and today operates a single modest terminal serving the Fylde coast and nearby Lancashire towns. As a small regional airport it’s best known for general aviation, flying schools and seasonal charter links rather than large scheduled networks, so it’s not a major airline hub but hosts regional and charter carriers and private operators. The airport is a short drive or tram/bus ride from Blackpool’s seafront attractions and connects to the wider rail network via local stations and bus links, making transfers straightforward. Travelers generally find fares and on-site costs reasonable for leisure travel, especially on seasonal routes.
