Zielona Góra Airport (Polish: Port Lotniczy Zielona Góra-Babimost) (IATA: IEG, ICAO: EPZG) is a regional airport in the Zielona Góra urban area (the Lubusian Tri-city) in western Poland. The airport is 10 km (6.2 mi) from Sulechów, 35 km (22 mi) northeast of the Zielona Góra city centre, in the village of Kramsko, near the town of Babimost, 95 km (59 mi) west of Poznań, 90 km (56 mi) east of the German border, and 170 km (110 mi) from Berlin. Its catchment area consists of the three million inhabitants of Lubusz Land (Ziemia Lubuska) and the west of Greater Poland (Wielkopolska).
The airport is Poland's 14th-busiest, in last place among current airports with scheduled traffic. It has been taken over from the Polish Army by regional authorities and is run by the state-owned Porty Lotnicze (PPL), which also operates Warsaw Chopin Airport. Discussion exists about whether a company created by regional authorities should assume management of the unprofitable airport.
