About Liverpool Airport
Liverpool airport is located about 7 miles south-east of the city off the A561.
The original building on the present site was opened in 1986 with a design capacity of 650000 passengers per annum. The facilities provided, with some minor alterations, proved adequate until 1995 when Direct Holidays commenced a summer charter operation. Since then, other charter companies (see Airline Information - Schedule and Charter page) have introduced holiday flights which, together with the decision by easyJet to locate its northern base at Liverpool, resulted in further alterations and enlargement of this building. Passenger figures for 2001 were 2258341 and for 2002 it is estimated to be around 2.5 million.
