Aeroport is a metro station of Metrovalencia network situated west of Valencia, Spain. The station is located at Valencia Manises Airport,[1] near Avinguda d'els Arcs and the adjacent bus terminal, making it a major access point towards the Valencia city center and Valencia port.

In the first 10 years since the station's opening, line 5 of Metrovalencia between Aeroport and Marítim-Serrería stations was used by 186.6 million passengers.[2]

The metro stop opened in April 2007[3] as part of a ten-station extension which cost over 200 million euro.[1] Originally, it formed part of metro zone B; however, in September 2012, it was moved to metro zone D, in order to maximise revenue.[1] After the number of metro zones was reduced in 2022 Aeroport is the sole station in metro zone C.[4]
