Bălți City Airfield is located in the very city of Bălți, at its eastern fringe (district "Autogara"). It is easily and quickly reachable with the trolleybus line 1, ten minutes from the city centre.
Bălți City Airfield serves primarily for local destinations in neighbouring districts of Moldova. The airplanes and helicopters based at Bălți City airport are mostly used in agriculture, and for public service needs.
During World War II, Bălți City was the most important aerodrome in its region.
On 29 October 2010, the government of the Republic of Moldova adopted decision No.983, pursuant to which it obliged the Free Economic Zone of Balti[1][circular reference] to build real estate assets on the territory of the Bălți International Airport in exchange of the real estate assets transferred to the Free Economic Zone of Balti from the former Balti City Airport.[2] No construction works on the territory of the Balti International Airport have started as of today,[when?] although the Free Economic Zone of Balti already built real estate assets for business purposes on the received land plots of the Balti City Airport.[citation needed]
