Pembrey West Wales Airport is located west northwest of Llanelli ( south of Carmarthen)
Pembrey airport is situated inside the Royal Air Force danger area D118 known as Pembrey Sands Air Weapons Range. Pembrey is open seven days a week but only open at weekends unless a prior booking is made, due to an LOA with the MoD to operate civil and commercial flights during operational hours as long as any visiting aircraft obtain the required prior permission required (PPR) from the RAF. The licence has been temporary withdrawn for construction work to be completed on one of the taxiways by the CAA As of 2010, there were plans to lengthen the runway and lighting arrays to allow larger commercial aircraft to land.
