Aviation businesses

Base your next chapter at Swansea Airport

With the new operators having secured a long-term lease, Swansea Airport is entering a more stable period for investment, growth, and aviation activity.

We are keen to hear from interested parties with aviation businesses who want to explore basing themselves at Swansea, from flight training and maintenance to aircraft services, experiences, hangarage, and complementary airfield operations.

Flying from Swansea

Run by passionate volunteers

Swansea Airport is mainly run by volunteers who are passionate about aviation and the local area. The team is dedicated to providing a safe, welcoming, and enjoyable experience for pilots, visitors, and aviation enthusiasts alike.

We are always looking for new volunteers to join our team. Whether you have experience in aviation or simply a love for flying, there are many ways to get involved and help support the airport.

We take volunteers from the age of 14 and offer a specific youth volunteer programme for 14 - 18 year olds which can be used to gain hours for Duke of Edinburgh awards or just because you are interested in aviation.
