Porto Airport - LPPR
Description:
Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport or simply Porto Airport is an international airport that serves the region of Porto, Portugal. The airport is currently the second-busiest in the country, based on aircraft operations; and the second-busiest in passengers. The airport is a base for easyJet, Ryanair, TAP Air Portugal and its subsidiary TAP Express.
The airport around Porto opened in 1945 and was initially known as Pedras Rubras Airport, after the name for the locality where the airport is located: Pedras Rubras. It was renamed in 1990 after former Portuguese prime minister, Francisco de Sá Carneiro, who died in a plane crash when he was traveling to this airport on 4 December 1980.
Porto Airport reached ten million passenger per year for the first time on 6 December 2017.
Airports Council International Airport Service Quality Awards voted the airport Best Airport in Europe in 2007. Additionally, it has placed in the top three of Best Airport in Europe a further nine times – winning second place in 2010, and third place in 2006, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016.
