If you would like to read more about Kerry Airport, see our book Kerry in the Jet Age (Kerry Airport 1969 – 2009) written by Donal Hickey. Beautifully illustrated with archive images. It is available from the Kerry Airport Departures Lounge Shop.
Kerry Airport was incorporated as a public limited company in July 1968 with its main objective of building and managing an airport at Farranfore. Various share capital fund raising programmes were undertaken and together with great assistance from the various statutory bodies over the years, the airport has developed from a runway of 1,090 metres x 23 metres commissioned in 1969 to a runway of 1,239m x 30m commissioned in 1989 and a new runway of 2,000m x 45m was opened in May 1994.
On the 25th August 1969 the first aircraft to land at Kerry Airport was piloted by Captain Milo Carr of the Department of Transport & Power. For a number of years the only aircraft using the aerodrome were light private aircraft and the occasional charter or cargo flight and also extensive parachuting took place. The first scheduled service was inaugurated in July 1979 using an islander aircraft operated by Aer Arann.
Encouraged by the apparent success of other regional airports in Ireland, the Board of Directors drew up a development plan to lengthen and widen the runway to 1,200m x 30m and to extend and upgrade the Terminal Buildings and to install an Instrument Landing System and appropriate lighting.
The runway was completed on schedule and the first scheduled flight into Kerry was on the 22nd May 1989 from Dublin by Aer Lingus followed the next day by Ryanair from London-Luton. On the 21st May 1993, the contract for the new runway of 2,000m x 45m and New Terminal was signed and the official “Sod Turning” was performed by An Tanaiste, Mr. Dick Spring TD.
The Runway 08/26 was licensed by the IAA on the 20th May 1994 and the first flight landed at 13:23 local time on the 20th May. It was a PA28 aircraft registration G-BLSD FROM Manchester and was piloted by C.Gurley. This was followed by the first commercial flight by Aer Lingus, a Saab 340. Its registration was EI-CFD and it was commanded by Captain Peter Heinz.
Today Kerry Airport currently offers scheduled direct flights to Dublin, London-Stansted, London-Luton, Berlin, and Frankfurt-Hahn with seasonal flights to Alicante & Faro. As well as the scheduled services it also handles several Ad-Hoc charter flights to Lourdes, Fatima and Medjugorje. The airport is constantly sourcing new routes that will be sustainable and of social and economical benefit to those living, working and holidaying in the region of Kerry.

At Kerry Airport we are committed to continuous route development, to provide direct access into Kerry for visitors worldwide. For the first six months of 2019 Kerry Airport welcomed 171,140 passengers, representing a 2% growth for the same period in 2018. With daily access to Dublin Airport with Aer Lingus Regional, passengers can connect worldwide from Kerry Airport.
Kerry Airport is situated in the South West of Ireland, and after Dublin (capital) this region is the most visited for holidaymakers in Ireland, as noted by Failte Ireland, the region attracts 26% of all holiday makers after Dublin, which attracts 37%. However, it is widely recognised that many visitors spend a relatively short time in Dublin.
Kerry is a leader in tourism with 1.3 million overseas visitors spending €337 million in the county in 2017, and in the same year Kerry accounted for 14% of overseas visitors to Ireland. Currently 27% of all U.K. visitors to Ireland will stay in the South West region. In 2017 32% of French visitors to Ireland visited Kerry and in the same year 27% of all Italian visitors to Ireland visited the county (source – Tourism Ireland).

Kerry – Positioned for Growth
Kerry is home to an impressive mix of long-established global brands and newly emerged entrepreneurial brands who have specifically chosen Kerry as their base. A skilled local and international workforce coupled with an inherent entrepreneurial spirit in Kerry has been core to the success of many businesses in the county.
Kerry Airport is central to the business community locally and in the South-West region and as part of this wider business community we have featured business leaders in their own sectors in this region.”
KERRY SCITECH
KerrySciTech’s mission is to promote, support and grow the science, tech and engineering sectors in the Kerry region. With up to 70 ‘sci-tech’ companies in the county, our regional cluster is continuously growing. With rising living costs and long commutes, not everyone wants to live and work in a city but more importantly, many companies are choosing to base their headquarters in regional locations and what better place than Kerry? While it’s one of Ireland’s most scenic and popular tourist destinations, not many people realise that we have a strong heritage in creating global success stories – Brian McCarthy of Fexco, Edmond Harty of Dairymaster, Mike Stack of TriCel, Jerry Kennelly of Tweak.com, Mike Fitzgerald of Netfeasa, Sean Ryan of Aspen Grove Solutions, Jim Breen of PulseLearning and Alan Scroope of FreeFlow (all former winners or finalists in the EY Entrepreneur of the Year Awards).
By helping our member companies in their endeavours to attract and retain ‘STEM’ talent; developing programmes of work to ensure the availability of the right skills within the region; and fostering collaboration across members, KerrySciTech ultimately helps companies grow, accelerate innovation and effect positive impact on the economic development of the Kerry region and beyond. Our membership includes a unique blend of start-ups, SMEs, multinationals, incubation centres and digital hubs, as well as strategic alliances with academia, education and training organisations and local government leaders who collaborate for positive economic impact in the region.

What’s unique:

On any given day, KerrySciTech members are both competing with each other and working cooperatively as allies to accomplish our shared goal of powering the Kerry economy to generate new jobs that attract and retain talent in our region.
The access, lifestyle, entrepreneurship of Kerry
Lifestyle
Living in Kerry has so many advantages – an ideal environment for raising a family, Kerry offers clean air, short commutes, and smaller schools. Outdoor enthusiasts have the best playground in the world at their feet, with pristine lakes, miles of coastline, and mountain ranges strung out along the horizon. Urbanites are catered for too, with excellent shopping in the larger towns, a thriving restaurant and pub scene, and a vibrant events calendar. Add to that cheaper housing, great transport links, and access to quality training and higher education, and you really have to ask yourself, why aren’t you living here yet?
Access
And while Kerry might be tucked into the southwest corner of Ireland, getting in and out is surprisingly easy. Kerry County Airport offers flights to and from Dublin, Frankfurt Hahn, Luton, Stansted, Faro, and Alicante.
Entrepreneurship
Our vibrant SciTech ecosystem which includes large global players such as JRI America, Astellas and Listal alongside our SME and start-up community has been integral to Kerry emerging as a very exciting destination for tech talent and entrepreneurs. This is a huge advantage for those thinking of joining a start-up or founding one. The cluster itself, has acted to reduce the risk for new entrepreneurs as there is a fantastic, helpful and supportive community established here who through KerrySciTech are pulling together – working with peers and mentoring new founders to drive success in our region.
KerrySciTech, our members and strategic partners are focused on ensuring we foster the innovation being created in the region and shine a light shine on the great work being done by many start-up and growing companies in Kerry. There’s a real drive, ambition and commitment from across industry, academia and our public bodies to sustaining, developing and growing the high-tech sector in the Kerry region. We know the challenges, in particular when it comes to attracting top talent, especially when competing with Dublin and our neighbours in Cork & Limerick. And while many might consider our cluster ‘small and remote’, we’ve got form in this space – you only have to look at one of KerrySciTech’s biggest supporters, Kerry Group, which started up from a caravan in Listowel, and now has a global workforce of 25,000!
ABODE KILLARNEY
Abode Killarney is best described as a new and innovative co-living property bringing a new dimension to living in Kerry. Based in Aghadoe, Abode Co-living presents several solutions in today’s challenging living and work environment. Firstly, it offers private living with community aspects. Secondly, it enables individuals to immediately immerse themselves in a community, especially for those arriving to an area or for those who are already situated, it now presents an alternative to conventional shared living.
Developer Derek Twiss, of Bond Street Investments, identified the solution co-living presented in an ever-changing property, work and living environment and recognised that this would be an excellent proposition in Killarney. Derek and his team have previously worked in the development of co-living properties in the UK and Ireland and in identifying the growth of co-living, Killarney presented so many unique aspects that mirror the values of co-living. Abode Killarney presents unique benefits not found in conventional shared living. It comprises of 12 contemporary and urban styled apartments, with a distinct retro-style running throughout the property. Each apartment has its own kitchen, dining area and living area and the bedrooms are designed to present different living options for those who wish to have their own room or for those who prefer to share. Talk to our Curator Eimear today about all the options available from 6 months, to 12 months to more long-term contracts for both individuals and corporate clients. “Abode Killarney offers a lifestyle solution for its residents who wish to live, work and play” When asked about developing Abode and his property portfolio in Kerry, Derek was philosophical. A more famous Kerry man than I, the great John B Keane once said “A day away from Kerry is a day wasted”. Having worked and lived abroad for a number of years, returning home was always my ambition. The value of working away and the experience gained has thought me to appreciate what on offer in Kerry and the entrepreneurial spirit in the county. Companies like Kerry Group, Fexco and Dairymaster are examples of homegrown businesses and are market leaders in their fields. The new RDI Hub in Killorglin is testament to the forward-thinking approach in the county and is one of the reasons why I decided to develop Abode. I have based myself in Kerry where I manage my business interests in Dublin, Cork and Kerry. I appreciate living & working in the area and with access to Kerry Airport, the train service and the ever-improving motorway system has afforded me the option. I get inspiration from living and working in one of the most beautiful areas in Ireland and it where I want to develop my business and rear my family.
There are communal spaces within the property and this is where the concept truly comes to life as community living is at the heart of the concept. Residents can also enjoy a shared kitchen and dining area, cinema room, laundry, gym, co-working area and living, chill out area. All designed to the highest specification and provides the highest standards in terms of technology and Wi-Fi. The cost for residents includes accommodation, utilities, Wi-Fi, secured living, secured parking, storage and access to all the communal aspects of Abode Killarney. Abode Killarney offers a lifestyle solution for its residents who wish to live, work and play differently.
