Aberdeen airport history

Aberdeen aiport was established by Erik Gandar Dower and opened in 1934. His original intentions were to link the northern islands of Scotland with London. The airfield became an RAF airbase during WWII, and although fighters were based there through the Battle of Britain to provide protection from German bombing raids from Norway, it was mainly used as a photographic reconnaissance base. The airport was nationalised in 1957 and was run by different goverment departments ( MTCA, DTI, CAA). The CAA were the last owners before it became part of the British Airports Authority (BAA) in 1975. After the discovery of North Sea oil, helicopter operations began in 1967, which linked the growing number of oil rigs to the mainland. As Aberdeen became the largest oil-related centre in Europe, the airport became the world's largest commercial heliport. Today, Aberdeen Airport carries approximately 468,000 passengers annually. Helicopter movements account for almost half of the traffic at Aberdeen Airport.

Until March 2005, aircraft were not permitted to take-off or land between 22:30 and 06:00 due to noise constraints. The airport is now open 24 hours a day as the city council overturned this ban, despoite strong objections from the residents of the area. The airport also services the United Kingdom's offshore oil industry, as installations serviced directly from Aberdeen stretch from the Argyll field (approx 56°N) to the Bruce field (60°N).

Over 2.7 million passengers used Aberdeen Airport in 2004, which was an increase of 5.7% on the previous year.

The airport has one main passenger terminal, serving scheduled and chartered flights. In addition, there are 2 terminals dedicated to North Sea helicopter operations, used by Bristow Helicopters, CHC-Scotia, and Bond Offshore Helicopters. There is also a small terminal used mostly for charter flights operated by oil companies.

The airport lies on the main A96 Aberdeen to Inverness road, and is well served by local and express bus services operated by First Aberdeen and Stagecoach Bluebird.
