Saint-Étienne–Loire-Airport or Aéroport de Saint-Étienne–Loire (IATA: EBU, ICAO: LFMH) is an international airport serving the French city of Saint-Étienne. It is located in Andrézieux-Bouthéon, 12 km north-northwest of Saint-Étienne,[1] within the département of Loire in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes région and mainly used by low-cost airlines.
History
In February 2017, the airport decided to cancel all subsidies towards low cost carriers serving the airport which led to Ryanair and Pegasus Airlines cancelling all services to Saint-Étienne by 2018.[2] As of 2024, there are no scheduled services to and from the airport, although there are occasional holiday charters, mainly to Mediterranean destinations.[3] Passengers were reallocated to Lyon–Saint-Exupéry Airport which is located 77 km (48 mi) to the north east of Saint-Étienne–Bouthéon Airport.
