Distance & flight time from GLI

Glen Innes Airport

GLI is the IATA code for Glen Innes Airport, serving the New England tablelands town of Glen Innes in New South Wales, Australia. Sitting at a notably high elevation for the region, the airfield primarily supports general aviation, agricultural flights, charter operations, and occasional medical evacuations for the surrounding rural community. Glen Innes itself is known for its Celtic heritage and the Australian Standing Stones monument, and the airport helps connect this otherwise remote inland district to larger regional hubs. Scheduled passenger services have historically been limited or intermittent, so GLI functions more as a lifeline strip for farmers, emergency services, and small aircraft owners than a commercial gateway. Its runway and facilities remain modest, reflecting the light traffic demands of a small country town rather than a major population center.
