Leeds has its own
airport The Leeds Bradford International Airport
[map].
The airport is easy to get to and is signposted on all
major roads over a wide area, including the M1 and M62
motorways and the Yorkshire section of the A1.
The airport has a wide range of facilities including a
number of well- known eateries and plenty of room to chill
out before your big journey. It also offers a high tech
check in area, nursing parents facilities, a new international
departure area incorporating the White Rose Cafe,
the Yorkshire Hero pub, a children's play area,
duty free, Delice De France and a books
plus outlet.
The airport recently became one of the few airports within
the UK, and one of the few public places in Europe, to
provide the new wireless Internet facility, ‘Wi-Fi’.
The facility allows users to access the Internet without
the need for cables and without the hassle of changing
settings on their laptop or PDA. This gives passengers
the freedom to switch on and surf the net in any location
in the terminal, at any time.
