Alexandroupoli Democritus Airport

Alexandroupoli Democritus Airport (LGAL) is a medium airport in Alexandroupolis, Greece. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code LGAL or IATA code AXD. It sits in Europe.

Alexandroupoli Democritus Airport is a regional commercial airport that doubles as a busy private-aviation base. Operators benefit from full instrument approaches and an FBO infrastructure scaled for regular jet traffic, often without the congestion of the nearest major hub.

Alexandroupoli Democritus Airport sits near sea level at 24 ft.

Local operations run on Europe/Athens. Scheduled airline service is light enough that it rarely interferes with charter movements, though planners should still expect to coordinate with the handling agent for international turnarounds.
