The North-East Scotland gateway and home to one of the world's busiest heliports.
Aberdeen Airport sits at Dyce, just outside the granite city, and is the principal aviation gateway for north-east Scotland. It's home to one of the world's busiest heliports, handling tens of thousands of rotary-wing movements a year for North Sea offshore oil and gas operations, alongside scheduled passenger services that handled around 2.3 million travellers in 2025.
Passenger services are led by Loganair, KLM, easyJet and British Airways, with the route map mixing UK domestic, North Sea oil-and-gas business connections (Stavanger, Bergen, Esbjerg), and short-haul European leisure during the summer.
The airport's compact terminal and quiet schedule (passenger flights are concentrated either side of the helicopter rush hours) means door-to-gate times are short.
All the practical access info, by car, train, coach and otherwise.
Argyll Road off the A96, signposted from the AWPR (Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route). From Aberdeen city centre, around 20-25 minutes; from Inverurie, 25 minutes.
Dyce station is a 10-minute walk or short bus ride from the terminal. Direct trains run to Aberdeen Central (10-15 minutes) and Inverness.
Stagecoach service 727 (the JET Connect) runs from Aberdeen Bus Station and Aberdeen Rail Station every 20 minutes during the day.
The airport is unusually well connected by helicopter, North Sea operators (Bristow, CHC, NHV) base their fleets here for offshore energy duty.
Official car parks are Premium (next to the terminal), Short Stay (multi-storey) and Long Stay (a 5-minute shuttle). All three are operated by the airport.
Off-airport supply is more limited than at the larger airports but several operators serve Aberdeen, mainly along the A96 and Argyll Road. Independent rates typically beat the airport's own long-stay by 20-35%.
The questions our 24/7 team gets asked most about flying from Aberdeen.
8 days costs from £73.97 (about £9.25 a day) at Aberdeen right now, based on live prices from 1 car park we compare. The cheapest option today is Airparks Express Parking (on-airport parking). Prices move with demand and rise sharply in the last fortnight before travel, so booking early is what actually saves money here.
It's the main fixed-base for offshore oil-and-gas helicopter operations to North Sea rigs. Several operators are based here.
Dyce station is nearby and connected by a 10-minute walk or short bus ride; trains run to Aberdeen Central and Inverness.
Connections via Amsterdam (KLM), London Heathrow (BA) and seasonal direct services. Year-round long-haul direct from ABZ is limited.
Mid-priced. Off-airport park-and-ride is the cheapest option for stays of 3+ days. Premium parking is a sensible choice for short business trips.
Two hours for short-haul. Domestic and Norwegian flights can be slightly tighter, 90 minutes is often enough.
More than at southern airports, fog and snow can cause delays. Most flights operate normally.
