Braunschweig-Wolfsburg Airport (IATA: BWE, ICAO: EDVE) is a regional airport located in Braunschweig, Lower Saxony, Germany. It serves the greater Braunschweig-Wolfsburg metropolitan area, including the nearby city of Wolfsburg, home to Volkswagen's global headquarters. The airport primarily handles general aviation, charter, and occasional scheduled services, and it plays an important role as a base for business aviation in the region. It is also closely associated with aerospace research and testing activities, given Braunschweig's status as a major center for aviation research in Germany, particularly through the German Aerospace Center (DLR). While it does not serve as a major hub for commercial airlines, the airport supports regional connectivity and industrial aviation needs, particularly for the automotive industry in the area.
