Basel–Mulhouse–Freiburg Airport, widely known as EuroAirport (IATA: BSL/MLH/EAP, ICAO: LFSB), is an international tri-national airport uniquely serving Switzerland, France, and Germany. Although the airport is physically located in Saint-Louis, France, it lies just a few kilometres from the Swiss border and the city of Basel, which is why it was originally conceived and continues to operate as a shared, cross-border aviation hub.
The airport features a single terminal divided into two fully separated sectors: the Swiss sector (Basel) and the French sector (Mulhouse). Both sectors share the same runway system and aircraft handling facilities, but passengers crossing from one sector to the other are formally crossing the national border. Despite being on French soil, the Swiss sector has its own dedicated access roads and car parks that link directly to Switzerland without passing through French territory.
Airlines may operate from either or both sides of the terminal depending on their network and operational needs. Over the years, EuroAirport has become an increasingly important base for carriers such as easyJet Switzerland and other European airlines, supporting both leisure and business travel across the region. The airport continues to modernize its facilities to accommodate rising passenger numbers, which recently surpassed 7.8 million travelers annually, reflecting its role as one of the most distinctive and strategically vital airports in Europe.
