Brno–Tuřany Airport (IATA code: BRQ, ICAO code: LKTB) is the second busiest airport in the Czech Republic with 542,633 passengers passed through the Brno–Tuřany passenger terminal in 2019. It is about 7.5 km (5 mi) from Brno's city center, on the edge of the historical Austerlitz battlefield. The airport is about 120 km (75 mi) from other international airports, such as Vienna Airport and Bratislava Airport and smaller international airports in Ostrava and Pardubice.
The terminal consists of two concourses. The new departure hall that opened in 2006 is capable of handling 1,000 passengers per hour. The building was designed by architect Petr Parolek and is considered to be one of the most significant projects of Czech contemporary architecture and a striking example of the growing trend of organic architecture. Cargo airlines such as ASL Airlines Belgium, Volga-Dnepr, or Antonov Design Bureau often use Brno Airport as one of their stopover points. Plans for building a new cargo terminal and industry zone are in talks of realization, which could take place in the near future.
