Dundee Airport
Location
Dundee Airport sits on Riverside Drive along the western fringe of the city, perched on the northern bank of the Tay estuary at approximately 56.4525° N, 3.0256° W. The runway runs parallel to the river, giving arriving passengers a memorable view of the Tay Rail Bridge as they touch down.
Access by road is straightforward via the A85 and the Kingsway ring road, while local bus services connect the terminal with the city centre in around ten minutes. Our drivers know every shortcut in between.
History
Dundee Airport traces its origins to the early 1960s, when a grass strip on the riverside was upgraded to serve the growing demand for regional air travel in eastern Scotland. Over subsequent decades the facility gained a paved runway, an instrument landing system, and a purpose-built terminal — all tailored to the needs of short-haul and business aviation.
Operators such as Loganair have maintained scheduled links to London and Belfast, keeping Dundee connected while preserving the quick, uncomplicated passenger experience that smaller airports do best.
Traffic & Statistics
Passenger numbers at Dundee Airport fluctuate with seasonal demand and route availability, but the facility consistently serves thousands of travellers each year. Loganair operates the backbone of scheduled services, while charter and corporate flights add to the mix — particularly during the Open Championship and St Andrews golf season, when Tayside sees a notable influx of international visitors.
For a regional airport of its size, Dundee punches above its weight as a connector between Scotland's east coast, the Highlands, and key destinations south of the border.
Terminals
A single, welcoming terminal building handles all arrivals and departures at Dundee Airport. Its modest footprint means check-in queues are typically short, security screening is swift, and the walk to your gate takes moments rather than minutes. Inside you'll find a small café and basic retail, giving you everything you need without the sprawling corridors of larger hubs.
Car Parking
Parking at Dundee Airport is refreshingly simple. Short-stay and long-stay spaces sit just steps from the terminal entrance, and the compact layout means you're never far from the check-in desk. Rates are reasonable by airport standards, and the lack of shuttle buses or distant car parks saves valuable time.
That said, leaving the car at home and booking one of our transfers is the most relaxing option of all — no parking fees, no icy early-morning windscreen scraping, and someone else handles the driving.

Executive People Carrier
The same generous capacity as the standard people carrier — up to 5 passengers with 5 suitcases (23 kg max), or 6 with hand luggage — enhanced with premium upholstery, climate control, and a noticeably smoother ride. A superb option when you want space and sophistication in one package.
