## Description

250,881 passengers used Bodensee-Airport Friedrichshafen (IATA: FDH, ICAO: EDNY) in 2025, ten per cent more than a year earlier — and almost no air freight at all. The airport lies about three kilometres north of Friedrichshafen on the German shore of Lake Constance and serves a four-country catchment across Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein, home to ZF Friedrichshafen and Rolls-Royce Power Systems. There is no dedicated air cargo terminal and no scheduled freighter service; Wizz Air, the leading scheduled carrier since Lufthansa withdrew, sells no cargo capacity on its Airbus A320 fleet, so regional shipments travel by road feeder service instead. The realistic gateways are Zurich (ZRH) at roughly 110 road kilometres, Stuttgart (STR) and Munich (MUC) at about 200 kilometres each, and Frankfurt (FRA) for intercontinental capacity with full customs clearance. Wizz Air kept expanding in 2025, adding Belgrade with a first flight on 2 June. Financially the airport remains fragile: after an insolvency in self-administration in 2021/22, renewed insolvency risk was reported in spring 2025 and the city of Friedrichshafen tied further funding to conditions. Business aviation and trade-fair traffic, including the AERO Friedrichshafen general aviation show next door, remain the site's real strengths, so freight planning should assume a truck leg.
