Poznań–Ławica Henryk Wieniawski Airport (IATA code: POZ, ICAO code: EPPO), also known as Poznań airport, is one of the oldest airports in Poland and was built in 1913. It is located 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) west of Poznań city centre.
The northern section of this airport has been used as a military airport since its inception in 1913 as an Imperial German airbase until 23 December 2009. The southern section is used for civilian purposes. The prospect of relocating the airport elsewhere is often raised as a result of the flight path to the runway being located directly over the city.
The airport caters for international, domestic and cargo flights and general aviation. A new terminal was opened in 2012 and can handle up to 3.5 million passengers per year. In 2019, the airport handles a total of 2, 379, 635 passengers with 31, 923 aircraft operations.
