Postville Airport guide

Postville Airport (Transport Canada identifier CCD4) is a small gravel aerodrome in northern Labrador. It serves Postville, an Inuit community of 188 residents at the 2021 census, set about 40 km inside Kaipokok Bay. The field sits at 223 feet above sea level.

Postville has no road connection. Residents and freight arrive by air year-round, by snowmobile in winter, or by the coastal ferry that runs between Nain and Happy Valley-Goose Bay from June to November. The airport is the community's main link for passengers, mail and medical travel. Happy Valley-Goose Bay lies about 180 km to the south-southwest.

The single runway, 05/23, is gravel and measures 2,576 by 75 feet. The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador operates the aerodrome. In 2023 the provincial government announced plans to upgrade the airport and its access road.

Air Borealis, a PAL Airlines subsidiary, flies to Postville from Goose Bay, Hopedale, Makkovik, Nain, Natuashish and Rigolet. Schedules change, so confirm routing and frequency with the airline before travelling.
