Kornicker Glacier is a glacier in the southern Sentinel Range of the Ellsworth Mountains in Antarctica. It drains northeastward from a cirque bounded by Mount Liptak, Mount Southwick, Mount Milton and Mount Mullen, flows along the northwestern side of Petvar Heights, and merges with the terminus of the southeast-flowing Thomas Glacier as both glaciers emerge from the range.
