'''Karlstad Airport''' {{Airport codes|KSD|ESOK}} is situated 16&nbsp;km (10&nbsp;mi) from [[Karlstad]] city centre in [[Sweden]].
 
== History ==
The airport was opened for traffic in 1997. The airport was built since the older Karlstad-Jakobsberg airport ({{coord|59|21|36|N|13|27|58.4|E|display=inline|type:airport_region:SE}}) was causing noise to many residents due to its location 3 &nbsp;km from Karlstad city centre, and also because a longer runway was desired. The old airport had too short runway for charter flights to southern Europe, but such flights became common from the opening of the new airport. The route to Stockholm had still a large majority of the passengers the first years, but this route declined due to other available transport modes such as car and train on this fairly short route ({{convert|258|km|abbr=on}}), and was finally closed in 2020 after reduced demand as a result of the [[COVID-19 pandemic]].
