At EuroAirport, the new 2024/2025 winter flight schedule will come into effect on Sunday, October 27, 2024. Valid until March 30, 2025, it will feature 80 destinations in 29 countries, primarily in Europe and the Mediterranean region, via direct flights offered by a total of 24 airlines.
In preparation of the Airport’s runway refurbishment scheduled for spring 2026, Basel Mulhouse-Airport will set up a construction site base. Preparative work will be carried out starting September 23 and continued throughout a total period of six months, with an effective execution (actual construction duration) period lasting around four months.
Last weekend, summer vacations came to an end in the last regions around EuroAirport. Due to EuroAirport’s trinational catchment area, the Airport’s summer vacation period is prolonged for several weeks each year.
From September 9, 2024, Manuela Witzig, former Head of German Corporate Communications, will take over as Head of Communications and Public Affairs. She will take over this role from Managing Director Matthias Suhr, who has held the position on an interim basis since September 2020.
Starting August 2, 2024, the airline flydubai has been offering scheduled flights between Basel-Mulhouse Airport and its hub located in Dubai. The Arabian airline and EuroAirport officially inaugurated the new route on Wednesday, August 7.
Summer vacation will soon begin in the tri-border area. For the upcoming weeks, EuroAirport is therefore expecting a very high volume of passengers.
With a new, giant banner on display at the Airport’s control tower, EuroAirport is celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Franco-Swiss Treaty. On July 4, 1949, the two neighbouring countries agreed the binational regulation on the construction and operation of Basel-Mulhouse Airport, which is still in force today.
All in all, 2023 was a challenging yet successful year for EuroAirport. The Airport’s challenge was to satisfy the needs of its passengers, airlines and business partners in equal measure despite a shortage of skilled workers, inflation and uncertainty in the global economy.
A very high volume of passengers is expected at EuroAirport over the coming Ascension and Pentecost weekends. An early arrival at the Airport is therefore strongly recommended.
The 19th edition of the EuroAirport Aviation Collectors’ Fair will take place on Sunday, April 14, 2024 on the 5th floor, in the South Terminal of the airport building (on the Swiss side). The collectors’ tables will be organised around the “Luminator”, Jean Tinguely’s last work of art.
Flights to 103 destinations via 30 airlines: the flight schedule for the summer season will start on March 31, 2024 with a number of new destinations and airlines.
Airport operations and biodiversity may seem contradictory. However, the measures taken by EuroAirport teams show that it is possible to reconcile airport activities and biodiversity.
