Oradea Airport (IATA: OMR, ICAO: LROD) is an international airport located 5 km (3.1 mi) southwest[1] of Oradea in northwestern Romania, Bihor County, near one of the main road and rail border crossings to Hungary. Its location near the European route E60 and the future Transylvania motorway as well as the county's high tourist potential (Băile Felix hot springs, Padiș Natural Protected Area, etc.) have led to a double digit growth of passenger and cargo traffic for the past two years.

Since its renovation, the airport has been competing with the neighboring Debrecen Airport in Hungary.[4]
