Anglesey Airport (Шаблон:Lang-cy) Шаблон:Airport codes is an airport owned by the Isle of Anglesey County Council on land leased from the Defence Infrastructure Organisation. The airport is situated at Llanfair-yn-Neubwll in Anglesey, Wales. The leased site is part of RAF Valley.
History
Plans put forward in early 2006 by the National Assembly for Wales (now the Senedd) led to a subsidised weekday air service between the airport and Cardiff Airport, 12 miles west of the Welsh capital, in the hope of improving the economy of Anglesey and North Wales in general. A twice daily service began in May 2007, with a journey time of around one hour. The route was variously operated by Links Air, Citywing, and Eastern Airways (on behalf of Flybe).[1][2] The route was suspended in March 2020 following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] In June 2022, the Welsh Government announced that it would no longer subsidise the route, and service was withdrawn permanently.[4]
The passenger terminal is a single storey building consisting of a check-in desk, departure lounge and baggage handling areas as well as other visitor information areas. The terminal, completed in 2007, was designed by MAP architects and cost £1,000,000.[5] The publicly funded building contract was given to the construction company Yorkon. The building was built off site and brought to the airport when finished.
The airport's principal stakeholders are RAF Valley, the Welsh Government, the Isle of Anglesey County Council and Cardiff Airport. The airport is contract managed and operated by Bilfinger Europa Facility Management Limited, a UK subsidiary of Bilfinger, a publicly quoted enterprise on the German stock exchange.
In March 2018, flights between Anglesey Airport and Cardiff Airport were suspended due to a fatal crash of a Hawk aircraft from the Red Arrows. Domestic flights were being diverted to Hawarden Airport in Flintshire with coaches transporting passengers between Valley and Hawarden.[6]
