You have your say on the closure of airport

Airport is set to close next year, with the UK Civil Aviation Authority confirming it will cease operations from June 2026.Readers have shared their thoughts on the closure, reflecting on the airport's history and the potential impact on local businesses and the community.

Businesses at the airport have been told they must vacate by May 2026. A CAA spokesperson said: "Coventry Aerodrome has given formal notice to us of its plan to close the airport permanently with effect from 11 June 2026."

The site, originally opened in 1936 as Baginton Aerodrome, served as RAF Baginton, a fighter airfield during the Second World War. Over the decades it has hosted freight, small aircraft, and occasional commercial flights.
