Trieste Airport (IATA: TRS, ICAO: LIPQ)[3] (Italian: Aeroporto di Trieste) is an international airport located 0.3 NM (0.56 km; 0.35 mi) west of Ronchi dei Legionari (Province of Gorizia),[1] near Trieste in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, north-eastern Italy. The airport has a catchment area of approximately 4 million people, stretching beyond Friuli-Venezia Giulia into neighboring Slovenia, Austria and Croatia.

Overview

The first official documents citing the airfield of Ronchi dei Legionari date back to 30 November 1935, when the 4th Fighter Wing of the

Royal Italian Air Force was based here. Commercial operations officially began on 2 December 1961. In 2007, the airport was dedicated to Pietro Savorgnan di Brazzà, a 19th century explorer with Friulian origins. In 2016 the airport was officially renamed Trieste Airport. In recent years the airport has witnessed growth in low-cost and cargo traffic.[4]

The airport is owned and operated by

F2i and the Friuli-Venezia Giulia
government.

Following a record year in 2023, the airport became Ryanair's 17th Italian base in early 2024.
