EuroAirport

EuroAirport Basel Mulhouse Freiburg, commonly referred to as EuroAirport, is an international airport located near Saint-Louis in the Alsace region of France, close to Basel, Switzerland, and Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany. It serves the Basel metropolitan area and the broader tri-border region of France, Switzerland, and Germany. The airport functions as the main international gateway for the Basel region and supports passenger travel, cargo operations, and general aviation.

Location and facilities are characterized by its cross-border setting. The airport site lies on French soil but operates as a cross-border joint venture, with governance and funding involving French and Swiss authorities and local municipalities. The facility centers on a single passenger terminal that serves a range of European airlines and a single asphalt runway. Over the years, the terminal and related services have undergone expansions to accommodate growing demand and to improve passenger flow and connectivity.

Air service and operations are focused on short- to mid-range European destinations. Carriers offer regular services to major hubs and regional cities, with a mix of full-service and low-cost operators. The airport supports both passenger and cargo traffic and maintains facilities suited to business and leisure travel alike.

Ground transportation and access are provided by road, bus, and rail links. The airport is connected to regional road networks and offers public transport connections to Basel, Mulhouse, and nearby communities, facilitating onward travel by rail and bus services to cities across Switzerland, France, and Germany.

EuroAirport is notable for its cross-border, tri-national character and serves as a key intra-European gateway for the Basel region, balancing Swiss, French, and German influence in its operations and governance.
