Eighth airport in France, Bordeaux-Mérignac airport takes place at a dozen kilometers from the city of Bordeaux, sharing its tracks with the airstrip 106 Bordeaux-Mérignac of the French Army.
The first aerodrome, that of Beau-Désert, was born at the beginning of the 20th century, developing in the early days around the army. It was not until the 1930s that the first terminals were created. NATO base after the Second World War, Bordeaux-Mérignac airport experienced a revival in the 2000s, experiencing a great tourist activity.
Today, the site serves a large part of the cities of France like Paris, Marseille, Nice, Strasbourg or Nantes, but also international destinations such as Rome, Marrakech, Montreal, Lisbon or Dublin.
