Saint-Étienne–Loire-Airport or Aéroport de Saint-Étienne–Loire is an international airport serving the French city of Saint-Étienne. It is located in Andrézieux-Bouthéon, 12 km north-northwest of Saint-Étienne, within the département of Loire in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes région and mainly used by low-cost airlines.

History

In February 2017, the airport decided to cancel all subsidies towards low cost carriers serving the airport which led to Ryanair and Pegasus Airlines cancelling all services to Saint-Étienne by 2018. Consequently, there were no scheduled services to and from the airport for several years, apart from occasional holiday charters, mainly to Mediterranean destinations. At the time, passengers were reallocated to Lyon–Saint-Exupéry Airport which is located to the north east of Saint-Étienne–Bouthéon Airport. In 2025, ASL Airlines France commenced flights to Bejaia during the summer holidays.
