MAI supports reopening of former Doncaster Sheffield Airport

Munich Airport International (MAI), the wholly owned consulting subsidiary of Munich Airport will provide operational and management services to FlyDoncaster Ltd., the airport operator owned by the City of Doncaster Council. Together with FP Airports Ltd, a UK-based aviation specialist, MAI will help drive forward the reopening of the former Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA) in Spring 2026.

According to the City of Doncaster Council, the travel hub could be profitable within five years of reopening and bring almost 5,000 direct jobs as well as creating up to 11,500 jobs in the wider economy.

Doncaster Sheffield Airport (formerly named and commonly referred to as Robin Hood Airport) has been closed since November 2022. The passenger terminal had 24 check-in desks, six departure gates and three baggage carousels.

Lorenzo di Loreto, Managing Director Munich Airport International says: “We are proud to be part of the re-opening of DSA. We are committed to sharing our profound expertise to help develop DSA into a passenger friendly and competitive airport and an engine of social, economic and environmental growth for Doncaster and the wider region.“
