Paris-Le Bourget
[LBG/LFPB]

Paris–Le Bourget Airport is an airport located within portions of the communes of Le Bourget, Bonneuil-en-France, Dugny and Gonesse, 11 km north-northeast of Paris, France. Once Paris's principal airport, it is now used only for general aviation, including business jet operations.
It also hosts air shows, most notably the Paris Air Show.

The airport started commercial operations in 1919 and was Paris's only airport until the construction of Orly Airport in 1932. Due to capacity constraints at Le Bourget, Air France transferred all of its operations to Orly in 1952. In 1977, Le Bourget was closed to international airline traffic and in 1980 to regional airline traffic, but continues serving both domestic and international business aviation.
