HRH Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother reopened Aldergrove as a civil airport on 28th October 1963
Belfast International Airport has been a hub of aviation since the 20th century with its origins tracing back to 1917 when Aldergrove was selected to be the Royal Flying Corps training establishment during the First World War. With the end of the war, Aldergrove remained open for Royal Air Force aircraft and for the fledgling civil traffic to and from Northern Ireland.
British Airways launched the first Belfast Heathrow shuttle service in April 1977 and later that year, the first Jumbo jet operates from Aldergrove on a charter service to Toronto via Shannon. While the airport had received many famous visitors over the years including The Beatles and Roy Orbison, it was in 1995 when it welcomed it's first visit from Air Force One when the Clinton's touched down on the runway.
