Francisco S\u00e1 Carneiro Airport (OPO)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Located 11 km from the historic center of Porto, this international airport is the second in the country in terms of air traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was inaugurated in 1945 under the name of Pedras Rubras (“red rocks”) airport, recalling its location in agricultural land with rich red soil. In 1990, the airport was renamed in honor of the former Portuguese Prime Minister Francisco S\u00e1 Carneiro. This change of name was not done without clashes as the latter died on December 4, 1980, in a plane crash on the way to this airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OPO is administered by the airport operator Aeroportos de Portugal (ANA), which has been owned by the French group Vinci since 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally designed by Portuguese architect Jo\u00e3o Caros Leal, it presents a contemporary architecture. In order to accommodate the growing number of people transiting through its facilities, ANA undertook an extensive project to redevelop the terminal building between 2003 and 2006. It was at this point that the new glass and concrete structure emerged from the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This allowed for the integration of five skylights in the center of the main terminal roof (WS Atkins), bringing maximum natural light into the terminal. A huge glass wall facing the runways allows passengers to admire the planes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
