: Jet off from Durham Tees Valley Airport

The airport began as Royal Air Force Station, called Middleton-St-George in 1941. It was decided that Middleton-St-George would close down due to the ending of the war in 1963 but the local authorities saw potential in the old airfield to become a civil airport, so it went ahead and the RAF left on 17th April 1964. The terminal Teesside International Airport was opened in 1966 by Queen Margaritha of Sweden and became very popular with local people wanting to get away to sunnier areas. In September 2004 Teesside International Airport changed its name to Durham Tees Valley Airport, this name change was only a small part of a new multi-million pound scheme to make sure the airport was improving and growing all the time, also the renaming of Durham Tees Valley Airport assisted in locating it on the international travel map.
