BHX opened its doors in 1939, and the Royal Air Force and the Royal Navy used this airport during WWII where they operated a flight school. The RAF paved the grass airstrips, and after the war, the airport was used for air races, fairs and other public events. A second terminal was added in 1961, and the runway was extended to accommodate larger jets. The Concorde landed at BHX in 1980. The Airbus A380 was able to land at the new 3-story pier in 2008. Growth and modernization followed in the 2000s.

Several car parks are available for long- and short-term parking within walking distance of the terminal. There are shuttle buses for those lots further away. Ground transportation includes trains, buses, coaches and taxis.

Birmingham Airport Reviews

★★★★☆
BHX is an ok airport check in was quick and swift with Emirates security was also quick not that many places to eat however there are whsmith and some cafes~costa :-) The departure lounge was quite however it may of been because of my flight. Overall good experiance, however on the way back it was a completely different experience. First of all the escalators were unclean also the atmosphere was dull. But it didn't really put an dent in the departure.
- Ali Jay

★★★★☆
Check-in area needs a facelift. Fortunately all funds seem to have been invested in the waiting area which is ok.
- Notaregular

★★★★★
I find it such an easy airport to get too! Being my local airport, the 30 minute train journey for something around £5 is by far the easiest. Hop off the train, onto the monorail and then your in the terminal! Check in queues vary between airline although I have never waited for a long time here and have always checked in the luggage or went straight to security with just hand baggage. Either way , both pleasant and not a far walk from eachother! Never queued in security for longer than 10 minutes. Have used express lane security which came with the executive lounge and can say that it is very good. 2 people were Infront meaning I cleared security in under 2-3 minutes! The departures lounge is quite spacious and contains the usual airport shops. There is two lounges (with a fee). No 1 lounge and Aspire. I have only personally used No1 and it is also very good! Most Flybe and Ryanair flights depart from gates 1-20 and the other from the rest. All accessible in a short period of time. Baggage reclaim is quick in past experiences too! Never had any problems and in most cases, luggage has came out before I've got there! Border Control however can sometimes be slow. Especially in Terminal 1 (Ryanair & Flybe side). Have waited here for some time especially if you get a few flights arriving at once! This side also doesn't have the 'self-service' facility! However, the other border control in T2 has been a breeze and has the 'self-service' facility. Overall, BHX is a very nice, airport and I've never had any problems caused by the airport itself!

★☆☆☆☆
Security a disgrace and took the piss big time..and drink really over priced..£5 for a pint..and £8.40 for a glass of wine
- James O Sullivan

★★★★☆
Used self-check-in and bag drop at flybe - really easy and quick. Security was quick and friendly, terminal is light and airy (the new one, the old one used by flybe needs ripping down and rebuilding!)
- Robert Heywood

★★★★★
So refreshing to use an airport with short queues and friendly staff, unlike Heathrow. Top tip is to avoid the Flybe/Ryanair terminal and go to the International terminal until 45 minutes before your flight. The International termial is much airier and brighter and less crowded
- Robert Heywood

★★★★★
Brilliant airport to travel through as usual, security was very fast and waiting for a matter of minutes and then straight through into the departures lounge
- bhxaviation

★★★★★
It's my best airport in UK! Not too big, so clean and friendly! (I want more easyJet destinations from BHX) :) A friendly staff, nice terminal and transport to the airport. Lots of destinations! :) It's the lovely airport! I very recomended that for you! :)
