Regional gateway serving the Dordogne department of France.

Location
Périgueux, France
Périgueux-Bassillac Airport is a small regional airport located in the Dordogne department of southwestern France, serving the prefecture city of Périgueux. It is situated in the commune of Bassillac, approximately 8 kilometres east of the city centre. The airport primarily handles general aviation traffic, charter flights, and limited scheduled services, reflecting the modest population and tourism demand of the surrounding area. The Dordogne region is known for its prehistoric sites, cuisine, and rural tourism, which occasionally drives seasonal air traffic. Due to its small scale, the airport has limited infrastructure compared to major French regional hubs, but it serves an important connectivity function for a department that lacks direct high-speed rail links to Paris.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building handling both general aviation and any scheduled or charter passenger operations.
Getting to & from
Ground transport between the airport and Périgueux city centre is primarily by taxi or private car, as regular public bus services are limited.
