Waterford Airport
Waterford, Ireland
Waterford Airport (Irish: Aerfort Phort Láirge, IATA: WAT, ICAO: EIWF) is located in Killowen, 4 NM (7.4 km, 4.6 mi) southeast of Waterford. Located in southeastern Ireland, the airport is operated by Waterford Airport Ltd. The airport's single scheduled commercial route, operated by VLM Airlines—which used Waterford as its only Irish airport and kept a base there—was discontinued in June 2016 as VLM went out of business, leaving the airport without any scheduled commercial air traffic. Since the discontinuation of commercial aviation at the airport, it has primarily been used for general aviation, including pilot training, search and rescue, aerial surveys and business flights. As of mid-2026, construction work to extend the airport's runway had reportedly commenced, with a view to potentially reopening the airport to commercial traffic during 2027.
