Location
Nobitz, Germany
Leipzig–Altenburg Airport (IATA: AOC, ICAO: EDAC) is a small regional airport located near Nobitz in the state of Thuringia, Germany. It serves as an alternative gateway to the broader Leipzig and Chemnitz region, primarily handling low-cost and charter flights. The airport has historically accommodated Ryanair services connecting the region to various European destinations, though its passenger volume remains modest compared to the larger Leipzig/Halle Airport.
