Small regional gateway serving northeastern Portugal's Trás-os-Montes.

Location
Bragança, Portugal
Bragança Airport (IATA: BGC, ICAO: LPBG) is a small regional airport located near the city of Bragança in the Trás-os-Montes region of northeastern Portugal. It serves as a minor air access point for this historically significant and relatively remote corner of the country, close to the Spanish border. The airport handles limited scheduled and general aviation traffic. Its runway and facilities are modest in scale, reflecting the low passenger volumes typical of regional Portuguese airports outside the main hubs of Lisbon, Porto, and Faro. Bragança itself is known for its medieval castle and historic old town, and the airport provides an alternative to the long road journey from major Portuguese cities, though connections remain infrequent.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building suitable for low-volume regional passenger operations.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between the airport and Bragança city centre is primarily by taxi or private vehicle, as regular public bus connections are limited.
