Distance & flight time from ILG
Wilmington Airport
ILG is Wilmington Airport, located in New Castle, Delaware, serving the Wilmington metropolitan area and northern Delaware. The airport primarily handles general aviation, corporate flights, and limited scheduled commercial service, given its proximity to the much larger Philadelphia International Airport just across the state line, which absorbs most regional passenger demand. ILG has historically cycled through periods with and without scheduled airline service as carriers adjust to the competitive Philadelphia-area market. Its convenient location near I-95 and the Wilmington business corridor makes it popular for corporate and charter flights serving the finance and chemical industries concentrated in Delaware.
