Your Aircraft Base

Depending on your requirements, Blackpool Airport can provide short term parking or a long term base for your aircraft.

An experienced fixed base operator (FBO) and a wide range of different specialist hangars means we have the most comprehensive offering in the North West.

Airport master plan developments offer the scope to build your own hangar at Blackpool Airport. 

As a Port of Entry without slot coordinated constraints, Blackpool Airport offers convenience and efficiency.

Aircraft Storage and Recycling

Blackpool Airport is a regulated airport, with enough hard standing to park aircraft of various sizes.
Competitive parking fees start from £75 per day for a regional aircraft.

Prices can be negotiated by volume, providing significant savings for extended parking compared to airports with scheduled operations.

Blackpool Airport can support lease companies, aircraft operators, or maintenance repair organisations (MRO) with short, mid or long-term parking requirements.

Our airport infrastructure can easily accommodate:

  • Lease redeliveries
  • Aircraft in transition between operations
  • Periods when aircraft have no further operational future
  • Parking for all stages eg. returns to lessors or aircraft about to be sold
  • Secure and economic hard-stand parking for a range of aircraft.
  • Office space, parts and consumables storage, heavy equipment holding and restricted areas for parts quarantine if necessary.

Engineering Facilities Available

MROs commissioned to undertake weekly, bi-weekly and monthly functional checks of parked aircraft as well as engine runs etc, have the opportunity to rent the necessary engineering facilities.

Blackpool Airport can also assist in sourcing Part 145 engineering support at all airports.

Managed Hangar Aircraft Parking

We have extensive hangarage capacity for both based and visiting aircraft available at competitive rates.
Open 7 days; 7:00 – 21:00, with potential extensions for late arrivals and departures.

Blackpool is an ideal base for private and business use aircraft. Airport Runway Slot Coordination is not required, and the prevailing runway is just a short taxi from the Apron and hangars.
