Blackpool International Airport (IATA: BLK, ICAO: EGNH) is a small international airport, 2.6 nautical miles (4.8 km) southeast of Blackpool, Lancashire in North West England.
The airport was owned and operated by City Hopper Airports Limited, which also owns Wolverhampton Airport and Biella Airport in Italy, but is under new management after one of its two major shareholders bought out its partner. MAR Properties Ltd has agreed terms to take over full control of Blackpool and Wolverhampton Airports .
Blackpool Airport Limited has a CAA Public Use Aerodrome Licence (Number P724) that allows flights for the public transport of passengers or for flying instruction.
Several scheduled airlines operate from the airport, as well as chartered holiday flights in summer months. Helicopter operations serve north west England’s Irish Sea offshore gas facilities.
Passenger numbers have recently increased sharply, from 377,000 during 2005 to 553,000 in the year to December 2006. Low-cost airlines such as Ryanair and Jet2.com have seen strong potential in Blackpool, bringing increasing passenger numbers.
