Huesca–Pirineos Airport[2] (Spanish; Castilian: Aeropuerto de Huesca-Pirineos[3]), also known as Huesca Airport, is the airport serving the province of Huesca in Spain.
The airport is located 9km (06miles) southeast of the city of Huesca, near the villages of Monflorite-Lascasas and Alcalá del Obispo. The airport is intended to serve skiing resorts in the Aragonese Pyrenees, but the closest ski station is more than 100 kilometers away.
In 2013, 279 passengers passed through the airport, a decrease of 79.2% from 2012. Aircraft movements fell by 33.1% to 1,637.[4]
Data for 2016 indicated that passenger usage had fallen to a total of 95 for the year (49 arrivals and 46 departures), making Huesca-Pirineos the airport with the least passenger traffic in the AENA network.[5] However, by 2018 passenger numbers had improved, as in that year the airport handled 1,473 passengers and 9,477 flight operations [6]
In February 2011, Pyrenair ceased activities, leaving the airport without any commercial activity until Air Europa commenced a seasonal service to Menorca which has also since ceased. As of January 2014, there are no scheduled services to or from Huesca. There are no airlines or destinations.
