Bremen Airport — Bremen, Germany

Bremen Airport, coded BRE, serves the city-state of Bremen in northern Germany and is often cited as one of the oldest airports in the world still operating on its original site. Elevation at the field is a mere 14 feet, and two runways handle operations, long associated with Germany's aerospace industry given the aircraft manufacturing heritage tied to the Bremen region since the early twentieth century. BRE handles both domestic connections within Germany and a range of European routes, serving business travelers linked to the city's shipbuilding, logistics, and aviation sectors. The airport's compact, central location keeps it close to downtown Bremen, and a direct tram line connects the terminal to the city center in a matter of minutes, a convenience not every European airport of comparable size can offer its passengers. Cargo traffic tied to the aerospace supply chain moves through BRE alongside the more typical mail and freight volumes handled at similarly sized regional fields.
