About Glenormiston Airport
Glenormiston Airport is a small private airfield serving Glenormiston Station, a large cattle station in far western Queensland's Channel Country. It primarily supports station operations, private aircraft and charter flights rather than scheduled passenger services.
Located approximately 113 km west of Boulia and around 250 km south of Mount Isa, the airfield provides a remote outback link for one of Queensland's most isolated pastoral regions. Its IATA code is GLM and its ICAO code is YGLO.
The airfield has two runways, 8/26 and 16/34, and sits at an elevation of about 519 feet. As a private strip, it has no public passenger terminal, and access is generally arranged through the station or aircraft operator.
Road access relies on remote outback routes, with the nearest town of Boulia roughly a 1.5–2 hour drive away. Most visitors arrive by private or charter aircraft or by four-wheel drive, so onward travel should be planned in advance.
