An airport is located in a landlocked area if it is situated outside a radius of over 100 km from the nearest international or Union connecting point. This distance may, by way of exception, be reduced to 75 km in order to take account of difficult access due to the geographical situation or the poor quality of the inland transport infrastructure.
