Airport Augsburg (EDMA) IFR

Augsburg (EDMA) is a well-equipped, GA-friendly airport with both IFR and VFR procedures, including ILS approaches. ATC and ground staff are generally described as professional and helpful, though individual experiences with controllers vary. IFR arrivals may incur a supplement to the landing fee. Parking is plentiful, with overnight rates for single-engine aircraft about €10 per night; longer-term parking applies after a few hours. Hangar space is available but not always guaranteed even with prior arrangement.

Landing and parking fees are moderate for Germany, typically ranging from about €20 to €40 for single-engine piston aircraft including one night of parking; higher weights or IFR supplements increase costs. Example: landing and parking about €40. For larger aircraft or extended stays, fees can exceed €100. Payment is possible by card or cash; BP fuel cards are accepted at the fuel station.

Facilities include a terminal with briefing room and weather access, maintenance services (including avionics and engineering support), and a restaurant/café with terrace—though opening hours and food availability can be inconsistent. The airfield hosts car rental desks (Sixt, Europcar, Hertz), but cars may need to be pre-booked or accessed via app-based services like app2drive, which reliably station vehicles on site. Taxis to Augsburg city cost around €20 and take 5–10 minutes; to Munich city center expect 45–60 minutes by car or taxi (costs vary widely). Augsburg main station is 10 km away with fast train connections to Munich in about 35 minutes.

Customs are available on site without advance notice required for most GA flights. Fuel (100LL) is always available; BP card accepted. Access to the apron is via the terminal only, resulting in relatively long walks to parked aircraft.

Public transport access is limited; bus service exists but schedules may be inconvenient outside weekdays. Procedures for circuit entry and IFR slots are standard; see AIP/NOTAM for details. The airport maintains high operational standards and is suitable for non-commercial GA operations under 2 t MTOW without special restrictions.

Augsburg offers efficient handling, reasonable fees, reliable customs, maintenance support, car hire options on site, and easy access to both Augsburg city and Munich by road or rail.
