Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrénées Airport (IATA: LDE) is an international airport located in the Hautes-Pyrénées department of southwestern France, serving the twin cities of Tarbes and Lourdes as well as the broader Pyrenees region. It handles a significant volume of religious pilgrimage traffic destined for the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, one of the most visited Catholic pilgrimage sites in the world. The airport sees strong seasonal demand, particularly during the spring and summer pilgrimage season, with charter and scheduled flights arriving from across Europe. It also serves leisure travelers heading to the Pyrenees for skiing and mountain tourism during the winter months. Despite its relatively modest size, the airport maintains international connectivity thanks to its unique dual appeal as both a religious pilgrimage hub and a gateway to outdoor recreation in the Pyrenees.
