Tiree Airport is a small regional airport located on the Isle of Tiree, one of the most westerly of the Inner Hebrides off the west coast of Scotland. It serves as a vital transport link for the island's small resident population and visitors, providing access to the Scottish mainland. The airport is operated by Highlands and Islands Airports Limited (HIAL), which manages a network of airports across the Highlands and Islands of Scotland. Its remote location and the island's flat terrain—Tiree is famously one of the flattest and sunniest islands in Scotland—make it a distinctive facility. Flights from Tiree connect primarily to Glasgow, providing an essential lifeline service for islanders who would otherwise face lengthy ferry journeys to reach the mainland.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building suited to the low passenger volumes typical of a remote island airport.
Getting to & from
Ground transport on Tiree is limited, with local taxis and car hire available to reach the island's villages from the airport.
Airlines here
Loganair is the primary airline serving Tiree Airport, operating scheduled services to Glasgow.
