Connemara Airport

Connemara Airport () or Connemara Regional Airport ()) is located at Inverin in the Connemara region of Ireland, west of the city of Galway. It is also known as Spiddal Airport, Inverin Airport, or Minna Airport (), a name also used by Minna Airport in Minna, Nigeria.

The airport was constructed in 1992, partly funded by Údarás na Gaeltachta (the development agency for the Gaeltacht) to help ensure the viability of the Aran Islands communities.

Aer Arann Islands operates Britten-Norman Islander aircraft to the Aran Islands of Inisheer (), Inishmaan () and Inishmore () off the coast of County Galway in Ireland.
