Doncaster Airport Information & Directions
Doncaster Airport, also known as Doncaster Robin Hood Airport, first opened as an RAF base, RAF Finningley in 1941, being a command base for bombers during the Second World War and the Cold War. The Airport was closed in 1996 as a military base but was reopened in April 2005 as a commercial Airport and just over a year later had handled over 1 million passengers, with continued expansion forecast for the future. The official name of the Airport is Robin Hood Doncaster Sheffield Airport, which was chosen after a little controversy. The idea was that the name would raise a lot of attention and be a fantastic marketing opportunity!
