Bratislava Airport (IATA code: BTS, ICAO code: LZIB) is the main international airport of Slovakia. It is located approximately 9 km (5.6 mi) northeast of the city center of Bratislava, spanning over the area of three municipalities (Bratislava-Ružinov, Bratislava-Vrakuňa and Ivanka pri Dunaji). Shortly after the independence of Slovakia in 1993, it was named after general Milan Rastislav Štefánik, whose aircraft crashed near Bratislava in 1919. The Airport may serve as a low-cost alternative for people from Vienna and the neighbouring areas.
The airport has one terminal serving arrivals and departures, completed in July 2012. The current runways enable the landing of virtually all types of aircraft used in the world today (except Airbus A380, Antonov An-225 and Boeing 747-8). The airport features two perpendicular runways (04/22 and 13/31).
