La Seu d'Urgell, Spain
Pirineus - la Seu d'Urgell Airport (IATA: LEU, ICAO: LESU) is a small regional airport located in the municipality of La Seu d'Urgell in the Alt Urgell comarca of Catalonia, Spain. Situated at an elevation of approximately 2,625 feet (800 meters) above sea level, the airport serves as the closest commercial aviation facility to the Principality of Andorra, making it a strategically important air link for the region. The airport handles limited scheduled and charter traffic, primarily serving leisure travelers heading to Andorra and the surrounding Pyrenean ski resorts. Its mountainous setting and relatively short runway impose operational constraints, limiting the size and type of aircraft that can safely use the facility. Despite its modest size, Pirineus - la Seu d'Urgell Airport plays a meaningful role in the regional tourism economy, particularly during winter ski season and summer mountain recreation periods. It is managed under the broader AENA network of Spanish airports.
