The airport is located south east of Doncaster and North East of Sheffield. The airport is aroud 30-40 minutes drive to Leeds (city), around 30 minutes to Sheffield. It is 3-4 miles from both the Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire borders.
Humberside may feel a slight pinch, but the airport is providing capacity in a region with limited airport capacity.
Before everyone points out LBA and HUY - they do a sterling job, but the fact remain 5 million passenegrs a year leave the region to catch a flight (mainly ex MAN and LON) and the propensity to fly from the region is seriously behind other regions - a direct result of limited direct services.
Robin Hood Doncaster Sheffield (DSA) is likely to stimulate new demand and potentially as the airport develops offer long haul rotues, a capability the region currently does not in all practicality have, and one which is much in demand.
