Fly to Plymouth: Easy Air Access for Conference and Event Delegates

When choosing a destination for a conference or corporate event, accessibility is essential. Plymouth benefits from excellent regional connectivity, with delegates able to fly into both Exeter Airport and Cornwall Airport Newquay, providing convenient air access to Britain’s Ocean City.

For conference organisers looking to attract delegates from across the UK, these two regional airports provide a valuable alternative to travelling by road or rail, helping make Plymouth conferences and corporate events accessible to a wider national audience.

Fly to Plymouth via Exeter Airport

Exeter Airport is one of the most convenient gateways for delegates travelling to Plymouth by air. Located in East Devon, the airport provides regional and international connections, with routes including services operated by Loganair.

Loganair currently operates year-round services from Exeter, including connections to Edinburgh, Manchester, Newcastle and Jersey, providing important links between Plymouth and other UK business centres.

For conference organisers, this regional connectivity can make Plymouth a more attractive proposition, particularly when delegates are travelling from Scotland, the North of England or other parts of the UK.

Exeter Airport is also experiencing significant growth, with passenger numbers increasing by 32% in the year to March 2026. The airport's growing network strengthens its role as an important gateway to the South West.

Cornwall Airport Newquay: Another gateway to Plymouth

Delegates can also consider Cornwall Airport Newquay when travelling to Plymouth. Newquay provides air connections to destinations including Manchester, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen, with Loganair among the airlines serving the airport.

For event organisers, having two regional airports within reach of Plymouth provides greater flexibility when planning delegate travel and can help open up new markets for conferences, meetings and incentive events.
