About Aberdeen Airport

Aberdeen Airport is the main hub for North Sea offshore operations and one of the world's busiest helicopter airports by movement count. The volume of offshore helicopter traffic means ATC sequencing is complex, mixing fast jets, commercial turboprops, and helicopters at varying speeds. Aberdeen's east coast location makes it vulnerable to North Sea haar fog, which can close the airport for hours without affecting Edinburgh or Glasgow.
