History of Gdansk Lech Walesa International Airport

The first passenger flights in Gdansk were operated in 1919 from an airfield in the Langfuhr district of the Free City of Danzig (now the Wrzeszcz district of Gdansk). It was possible thanks to the transformation of that military location into a civilian facility. At that time, the airport was additionally used for airmail services and by the police. In the next few years, the airport continued to acquire additional areas, which allowed it to expand and invest in modern infrastructure. The technical development of Gdansk Wrzeszcz Airport (Danzig-Langfuhr Airport) was followed by the launch of regular routes to Warsaw, Berlin, Moscow, Königsberg, and other

important cities in the region. The flights were operated by numerous international aviation companies.

After the closure of the old airport, the new one was built, and it opened in 1974 near the village of Rebiechowo (on westernmost land incorporated into the Gdansk borough of Matarnia in 1973). The airport acquired its current name in 2004. There was some controversy as to whether the name should be spelled Lech Walesa (without diacritics, but better recognizable in the world) or Lech Wasa (with Polish letters, but difficult to write and pronounce for foreigners, the closest English phonetic approximation being "Vawensa").

Since 1993, Gdansk Airport has been owned 31.45% of the authorities of Pomeranian Voivodeship, 29.45% by the city of Gdansk, 1.14% by the city of Gdynia, 0.35% by the city of Sopot, and 37.61% by the Polish Airports State Enterprise. In 2006, the airport served, for the first time in its history, more than 1 million passengers per year. In 2010, the passenger number was higher than 2 million. After the construction of a new modern passenger terminal with extended capacities (the opening took place in April 2012 ahead of the UEFA Euro 2012 football championships), the airport continued its development, and it served for the first time over 3 million passengers in a single year in 2014. In the summer of 2015, airlines flying to and from the airport served over 50 regular routes as well as charter and cargo flights.
