There Were no
scheduled flights directly to the Isle of Mull, the nearest
airport being Glasgow Airport.
However, we now have a commercial link by seaplane from
Glasgow S.E.C. to Tobermory. Its operation is as
follows: (Taken from their website
www.lochlomondseaplanes.com/)
In the time it takes to drive
to the ferry in Craignure from Tobermory, the seaplane has
landed in Glasgow. No flight terminals to sit in for
hours, no waiting in a 'Q' at the end of the runway.
Basically, its like jumping on a very efficient water taxi.
If you wish to arrive on Mull in style, then this is the way
to do it! Getting married, special occasion, business
trip where your time matters? Having to hire a car
from Glasgow to Mull? look at the costing carefully.

There are other airports;
however, public transport links to the Isle of Mull are better
from Glasgow.
Private plane owners, can fly to Glenforsa airfield on the island itself. The Glenforsa airfield on the Isle of Mull is
situated on the north of the island, near Salen. Information
about landing conditions and facilities, including weather, can be
gained by phoning or E-mailing David Howitt. (01680 300 402) Email mullair@btinternet.com
. Both Oban and Mull airfields are run by qualified enthusiasts who
are keen to develop and improve facilities. Help is freely
given.
Glenforsa
Airfield has a fly-in every year which is very well supported
and visitors are welcome. Information again from David Howitt.
Situated by the
airfield is the Glenforsa
Hotel. The hotel has views across the airfield and the
Sound of Mull and is open to non residents for meals and bars.
The proprietor can also be contacted for general
information. Refuelling facilities are
not available at Glenforsa, but excellent facilities are
available a short distance away, at
Oban
Airport. Images on the right give an impression of
the Oban facilities.
