Rimini and San Marino "Federico Fellini" International Airport (Italian: Aeroporto Internazionale di Rimini e San Marino 'Federico Fellini'; IATA: RMI, ICAO: LIPR), formerly Rimini Miramare Airport (Italian: Aeroporto di Rimini Miramare), and more simply known as Rimini Airport or Fellini Airport, is an international airport located in Rimini, in the region of Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy.

Fellini Airport is located in the southern frazione of Miramare, 5.2 kilometres (3.2 mi) southeast of Rimini's city centre and near Riccione.[2] As well as serving the Province of Rimini, it is the main aerial gateway to the Republic of San Marino. The airport is a crucial nexus in the local economy, particularly for tourists visiting the riviera romagnola.[3] Since the airport's reopening in 2014, following the bankruptcy of the previous management company, Fellini Airport has been managed by AIRiminum 2014 SpA.[4] It is named after Italian filmmaker Federico Fellini, who was born in Rimini, and recorded 215,767 passengers in 2022, rendering it the second-busiest airport in Emilia-Romagna after Bologna Airport.[1] The airport is mainly served by low-cost carriers and charter traffic.[2]

The airport was built in 1929 as an aerodrome,[5] on the site of the former Rimini-Riccione Defence Section of the army's Aeronautical Service.[6] It ranked among Italy's busiest airports during the 1960s, supported by international tourists visiting Rimini's beaches.[7] Its passenger use declined with the opening of the A14 tolled highway in 1966.[8] Since the end of the Cold War, Fellini Airport has been especially popular among tourists from the countries of the former Soviet Union.[9][10][11] Russian and Ukrainian passengers together represented 61% of Fellini Airport's passengers before the 2022 invasion,[12] which was projected to lose the airport 300,000 passengers annually.[13][14] Alongside its civilian history, the airport has a notable military history: it was the home of the 5th Aerobrigade of the Italian Air Force between 1956 and 2010,[15] and during the Cold War, it was identified by the Warsaw Pact as a strategic target in the event of an all-out war,[15][16] housing several thousand Italian and NATO soldiers and thirty B61 nuclear bombs. Helicopters belonging to the 7th Army Aviation Regiment "Vega" remain at the airport.[15]
