Innsbruck Kranebitten Airport is located 5 kilometres west of the center of Innsbruck, with a single runway ( 2000 x 45m / 6562 x 148ft ) with the magnetic heading 08/26.

Innsbruck's first airfield was located at the eastern end, but was newly opened south of the village Kranebitten in 1948, that's where the airport got its name from. A first scheduled service started to Zurich in 1950, flown by Swissair.

Nowadays, Innsbruck is the operational homebase of Austrian Arrows (Tyrolean Airways), Tyrolean Air Ambulance and Welcome Air. In 2004, the airport was used by 728.000 passengers and a total amount of 14,000 flights.
