Norderney Airport (German: Flughafen Norderney, IATA: NRD, ICAO: EDWY) is an airport on the island of Norderney in Lower Saxony, Germany. Having been opened in 1970, the airport is an integral part of the island's infrastructure, serving as a faster way to get onto or off the island compared to shipping and is available even when maritime traffic is suspended in the winter due to ice. In 1963, plans emerged to replace the island's makeshift airfield that was built in 1954 after the island's original airfield was converted into allotments in the aftermath of World War II. A new location was needed due to problematic wind conditions, the flood prone area, and a lack of space for expansion. In 1965, the new location was selected, an agricultural area near the island's lighthouse. More information...
