Groningen Airport Eelde is a regional airport located near the village of Eelde, approximately 10 kilometres south of the city of Groningen in the northern Netherlands. It serves as the primary commercial airport for the provinces of Groningen, Drenthe, and Friesland, handling both scheduled passenger flights and general aviation traffic. The airport has faced ongoing commercial challenges over the years, with fluctuating passenger numbers and periodic restructuring of routes. It has been used for charter, low-cost, and regional scheduled services, though its traffic volumes remain modest compared to larger Dutch airports such as Amsterdam Schiphol. The airport also supports flight training, business aviation, and cargo operations.
