Ostend–Bruges International Airport (IATA: OST, ICAO: EBOS), commonly known simply as Ostend Airport, is an international airport located 2.7 nautical miles (5.0 km; 3.1 mi) south southwest of Ostend, Belgium, near the coast and about 25 km (16 mi) from central Bruges.
Although freight transport is the focus of a large proportion of its activities, the airport is increasingly used for passenger flights, mainly charter and holiday flights organised by tour operators. It is also often used for private business flights. The airport covers about 350 hectares (860 acres) of land and has one 3,200-metre (10,500 ft) runway.
