According to Wikipedia Venice has a population of 264.579 inhabitants and like I mentioned before it has two commercial airports. But Venice draws a lot of tourists so that's no surprise. But I think it still counts as a winner so far.

My FIRST POST !....Bucharest Aurel Vlaicu Airport / Romania (BBU/LRBS) & Bucharest Henri Coanda International Airport / Romania (OTP/LROP)...!!!

But Aurel Vlaicu doesn't have any commercial airline service anymore. There used to be in the past, but several years ago it all moved to Henri Coanda. Now Aurel Vlaicu is a GA airport only.

It's a long time ago (1970's), but Piedmont used to fly to both Smith- Reynolds airport in Winston Salem and Greensboro airport. They're only about 20 miles away from each other. Even today, the metro area population is about 750k (must have been a lot less back then)

Fantastic example, but Framnes was actually closed just last month. All services are now provided solely at Evenes.

Dubai, an emirate with a population of 2.7 million, has two airports-DXB and DWC with scheduled airline service. Given that DXB is such a high profile hub, it's easy to forget that the city isn't a huge metropolis by any stretch of the imagination.
Of course both airports have larger catchement areas-basically the rest of the country (population around 10 million).

Fort Wayne, IN, has 250,000 population (about 400,000 MSA), and is served by 2 airports: Fort Wayne International (FWA) for airline service (G4, AA, UA, DL) and Smith Field (SMD) for GA aircraft.

Also in FWA's catchment area: Warsaw (ASW), population 14,280 and home to bizjets for Zimmer Biomet, Johnson & Johnson (DePuy Synthes Joint Reconstruction division), and Medtronic (spine and biologics division). All three have major manufacturing and R&D presences in Warsaw where people commute from far away to make artificial knees.

Given Belfast has a relatively small population but has two airports, are there any other small cities/towns (i.e. less than 750,000 people) that are served by more than one airport?
