Sligo Airport

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

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

Sligo Airport sits near sea level at 11 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 EISG 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.

Use this page to compare EISG against nearby alternatives, browse live empty-leg pricing in both directions, and brief yourself on the runway and elevation profile before you book.

Sligo Airport is located in Strandhill, County Sligo, 5 NM west of Sligo, at the end of the R277 road, in Ireland. The airport is a small regional airport and has had no scheduled routes since 2011. It is the home of the Sligo Aero Club and the northwest base for the Irish Coastguard. Private flight training, skydiving and charity jumps are all operated from the airport. In 2002 a Euroceltic Airways Fokker F27 aircraft carrying the band Aslan overshot the runway and the nose dipped into the sea. The accident caused no casualties.
