Frankfurt Hahn Airport [German: Flughafen Frankfurt-Hahn] is an international aviation facility located in central western
Germany. Despite its name, the airport is situated some 120 km west of Frankfurt and some 90 kilometres west of Wiesbaden. The airport was originally the Hahn Air Base of the United States Air Force, and was converted to a civil airport after outliving its usefulness as a military base. Although it handles international flights, Hahn airport does not have the word "International" as part of its name - in order to avoid confusion with the more heavily used Frankfurt International Airport. As airport charges to operators are low because of its remote location, Frankfurt-Hahn is very popular with low-cost airlines like Ryanair, which uses it as one of its principal hubs.
