Description
Bordeaux-Mérignac airport is a French international airport located in the town of Mérignac, 12 km west of Bordeaux in the Gironde department, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region.

It welcomed 7.7 million passengers in 2019, making it the 8th largest airport in France and the 6th outside the Paris region.
