Landvetter (IATA: GOT, ICAO: ESGG) is an international airport serving the Gothenburg region in Sweden. With 5.2 million passengers in 2005 it is Sweden's second-largest airport (after Stockholm-Arlanda).
The airport is named after the small town of Landvetter, which is located in the municipality of Härryda. It is 20 km east of Gothenburg and 40 km west of Borås. Gothenburg's second international airport is Gothenburg City Airport.
It traditionally has had two terminals, domestic and international, but they are now considered one single terminal. There is only one check-in area now, since all luggage has to be screened.
The transfer area has several shops, cafes, and a restaurant. There is a hotel 500 m from the terminal.
