airport serving the French city of Brest. It is located in the "commune" ofGuipavas and 10.2km (6.4 miles) northeast of Brest, within the "département" ofFinistère .Though the main operator is Air France (and subsidiaries "Brit Air" and "Regional"), serving for the most part Paris and Lyon, other scheduled services are offered to the UK, noticeably by "Flybe".
