Background information

Norwich Airport was originally founded in 1940 as an RAF bomber station, and stayed as a front-line RAF station for many years. Much of the old hangars were renovated into terminals or housing blocks, and while many runways still exist only one is used for commercial purposes. In 2004, the airport was acquired by Omniport, and the airport quickly became one of the UK hubs for budget carrier Flybe. In 2007, the airport introduced its Airport Development Fee, and all passengers departing from the airport pay a fee of £10.

The facilities at Norwich Airport are much what you would expect from a small regional airport, with plenty of business facilities, free WiFi and restaurants to pass the time, and a large amount of parking around the airport. The airport area also has a day nursery for particularly long stopovers.
