Airport guide

Galway Airport (EICM) is a medium airport in Galway, Ireland. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code EICM or IATA code GWY. It sits in Europe.

Galway Airport is a regional airport primarily serving general aviation, charter, and corporate flight departments.

Galway Airport sits near sea level at 81 ft.

Local operations run on Europe/Dublin. Without scheduled airline traffic, the field tends to be quieter and more flexible for charter and corporate operations — a useful characteristic for early morning, late night, or short-notice flights that would be impractical at a hub.

SkyAccess inventory for EICM updates continuously as operators publish new empty legs and one-way repositioning trips. Pricing on each leg is available with a free account, and an inventory alert will email you the moment a leg appears on the route you care about.

Background from Wikipedia

Galway Airport is an airport located at Carnmore, 4 NM east of Galway City, County Galway, Ireland, managed by Corrib Airport Limited. Its last scheduled passenger traffic was on 31 October 2011, when Aer Arann ceased commercial operations at the airport. At 1289 m (4230 ft), the runway is too short to handle most jet airliners and so scheduled services were restricted to turboprop aircraft or small executive jets. At peak, the airport served over 300,000 passengers annually, with 16 destinations.
