About Sanday Airport
Sanday Airport is a small regional airfield serving the island of Sanday, one of Orkney's North Isles in Scotland. It is operated by Orkney Islands Council and mainly supports domestic inter-island flights that link the island with Kirkwall, the Orkney capital, and neighbouring North Isles such as Stronsay and North Ronaldsay.
The airport handles scheduled Loganair services and occasional general aviation traffic. Its short inter-island flights provide an important lifeline for residents, visitors and essential travel, with journeys between Sanday and Kirkwall typically taking only a few minutes by air.
Located close to the settlement of Kettletoft, the airport has a single compact terminal with a basic waiting area, toilets and free parking. Facilities are limited compared with larger airports, and the airfield is not licensed for night operations, so scheduled services run during daylight hours.
For onward travel on the island, visitors can use pre-booked taxis or private transfers, and a ferry connection links Sanday with Kirkwall and other parts of Orkney. Sanday Airport therefore serves as a small but essential gateway for exploring the island and continuing through Orkney.
