Skövde Airport (IATA: KVB, ICAO: ESGR) is an airport located in Skövde and was inaugurated in 1989. The airport was built as Skövde's replacement for the failed project for a joint airfield, Skarlanda, for Skaraborg County near Axvall outside Skara. Lidköping-Hovby Airport and Falköping Airport were also built after Skarlanda was not implemented.
