Lleida-Alguaire Airport (IATA: ILD, ICAO: LEDA) is an airport located in Alguaire, 15 km (9.3 mi) from the centre of Lleida (Catalonia, Spain).
Lleida-Alguaire has been designed as a regional airport to provide both passenger and cargo transport to Western Catalonia (the Ponent region and Catalan Pyrenees), Andorra and some counties (comarques) of La Franja.[2]. The airport construction project had a budget of 130 million euro and it was the first airport built and owned by the Generalitat of Catalonia, via its public-capital company Aeroports de Catalunya.
Two new highways, the Autovías A-14 and A-22, will provide road access to the airport.
The opening took place on January 17, 2010.
