The smaller of the two airports, Waterford, is served by flights from Birmingham in the UK, but Birmingham itself operates as a stopping off point for flights from destinations such as Paris, Milan, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen.

From Birmingham to Waterford the flight takes just over an hour and the route is served by a single budget airline. Despite its relatively small size and the low number of flights landing there, Waterford Airport still manages to handle over thirty thousand passengers each year and offers all the facilities you’d expect from a modern airport.
