General

Groningen Airport Eelde offers special facilities to disabled and disabled travellers to enable them to travel comfortably. You can read all about these facilities on our 'special assistance' page.

It is always possible to park your bicycle in the public bicycle shed at Groningen Airport Eelde. This is located under the control tower. There is also a locked bicycle shed. If you wish to make use of this facility, please send an e-mail to receptie@gae.nl prior to your flight. They will be happy to provide you with more information. Did you not register in advance? Then, unfortunately, this bicycle shed is not accessible.

You can take your dog on holiday provided you have indicated this in advance to the airline you are flying with. You can take your dog as far as the departure hall. At the gate, the dog will be placed in the crate you brought with you and taken to the plane. For smaller dogs, there is sometimes the possibility of taking them with you in the cabin. This varies from airline to airline. We advise you to contact the airline in advance to discuss the possibilities and conditions.

Objects found at Groningen Airport Eelde can be collected from the Handling department. They are located in the airport terminal (to the left of the terminal, diagonally opposite the travel agency).

No, you can't just request a guided tour. Twice a year, we offer tours for local residents and interested parties. Keep an eye on the site and social media for when there will be tours again. For more information and specific questions, please contact marketing@gae.nl. 

There are no tours for school classes etc. We have a special kids' page with information, experiments and colouring pictures. Also useful for a talk or paper! 
Of course, you can also visit Groningen Airport Eelde on your own. The panorama terrace of airport restaurant Bites & Flights offers a nice view of the apron and runway. Do check the restaurant's opening hours in advance.
