Airlink is a 29 hectare land parcel immediately to the south of Newcastle International Airport’s runway and adjacent to the Airport’s existing and operational Golf apron.
The strategic location of the site presents excellent road access opportunities, thanks to being just 2.5 miles from the main A1 trunk road connecting the North and South of the UK.
The site also benefits from direct airside access, with aircraft able to arrive and depart with ease. Due to this, the site provides an ideal opportunity for freight and distribution operations but could also be an excellent location for time critical services, such as advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals and cargo operators.
Newcastle Airport’s runway can accommodate a wide range of aircraft and can handle both scheduled flights and specialist charters with ease. With 24/7 operations and Cat III landing capabilities the Airport is a perfect gateway into, and out of, the region. Additionally, the Airport is neither slot restricted nor congested.
Newcastle International Airport is working on a planning application with a development partner and anticipates planning permission in late 2025, with construction to begin in 2026.
The Airport is seeking commercial occupiers such as cargo operators, freight forwarding companies and ground handling agents, who will benefit from unparalleled connectivity due to the site’s direct airside access and proximity to global markets.
