Coventry Airport is being put up for sale by its shareholders and directors.

Over £6 (€6.8) million has been invested in infrastructure at the airport since the takeover from the TUI Group, including upgrading the airport ground lighting system, resurfacing part of the runway, new signage for the runway and taxiways and ongoing improvements to Air Traffic Control.

Centrally located in the West Midlands, Coventry Airport is easily accessible with the midlands motorway network and major trunk roads close by. A local bus service links the airport with Coventry Rail station, giving a mainline train service to London in just 60 minutes. Two million people live within a 35 minute drive of the airport and 8 million live within 60 minutes.
