Location

Bern, Switzerland

Bern Airport (IATA: BRN, ICAO: LSZB), also known as Bern Belp Airport, is the regional airport serving Switzerland's federal capital, Bern. Located in the municipality of Belpmoos near Belp, approximately 9 kilometres southeast of the city centre, it is one of Switzerland's smaller commercial airports. The airport handles a modest volume of scheduled, charter, and general aviation traffic. Its single runway and compact infrastructure reflect its regional status, though it serves as an important link for business travellers and government officials given Bern's role as the national capital. Over the years, scheduled services have been operated by various carriers connecting Bern to European destinations, though the route network remains limited compared to Switzerland's major hubs at Zurich and Geneva.

Terminals

The airport has a single, compact passenger terminal suited to its regional traffic volumes.

The airport is connected to Bern city centre by bus services and taxi, with the journey taking approximately 20–30 minutes; a dedicated airport bus links to Bern's main railway station.
