Igloolik Airport Guide
Igloolik Airport is a small public airport serving the hamlet of Igloolik, on an island off the Melville Peninsula in Nunavut. It carries the ICAO code CYGT and sits 53 metres (173 feet) above sea level. The Government of Nunavut operates it, and it is the community's only scheduled air link.
The airfield has one gravel runway, 15/33, which measures 1,248 metres (4,095 feet) long. That length suits turboprop passenger and freight aircraft rather than large jets. Statistics Canada recorded 1,323 aircraft movements in 2010.
Canadian North flies the scheduled service, connecting Igloolik with Iqaluit and Sanirajak. The airport sits just above the town, so the hamlet is within a short distance of the airfield.
