[1][5] The first proposal to build and manage an airport in the Marche region by a local authority emerged in 1929, initiated by the Province of Ancona.

It was through the Province's efforts that the history of Marche Airport began, constructed with authorisation from the Ministry of Aeronautics in the Contrada Fiumesino area of Falconara.

Initially designated as a military emergency landing field for aircraft forced to make an unscheduled descent, the airfield was developed at a cost of 2,000,000 lire for the Province.

In 1960, the Province, along with other local authorities, launched a promotional initiative to enhance airport infrastructure and encourage air travel.

People travelling on the Autostrada A14 need to exit at "Ancona Nord" and join Strada statale 76 della Val d'Esino.
