Birmingham Airport

Birmingham Airport (BHX) is an international airport located about 13 kilometers southeast of Birmingham city center in England's West Midlands region. It serves as a major gateway for both domestic and international flights, connecting the Midlands to Europe, the Middle East, and destinations across the world. The airport features a single, modern terminal equipped with shops, restaurants, lounges, and efficient transport links, including a free Air-Rail link to Birmingham International railway station. Over 12 million passengers pass through Birmingham Airport each year, making it one of the busiest in the United Kingdom. It is a base for airlines such as Jet2.com, TUI Airways, and Ryanair, offering a mix of scheduled and holiday flights. Surrounded by scenic countryside yet close to Britain's second-largest city, the airport combines convenience, accessibility, and growing global reach.

The webcam operates in a special spotting mode, designed for aviation enthusiasts who enjoy watching aircraft take off and land. It usually works for several hours per day, mainly during daylight when visibility and air traffic are best, rather than broadcasting around the clock. The webcam often captures narrow-body jets such as the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737, which are common on European routes. Occasionally, larger long-haul aircraft like the Boeing 787 Dreamliner or the Airbus A350 can also be seen arriving or departing. The stream offers a real-time look at one of the UK's busiest regional airports, making it a favorite spot for plane lovers to experience the excitement of Birmingham's skies.
