Kimmirut Airport guide

Kimmirut Airport is a small public airport serving the hamlet of Kimmirut on the south coast of Baffin Island, Nunavut. It carries the ICAO code CYLC and sits 52 metres (169 feet) above sea level. The Government of Nunavut operates it, and it is the hamlet's only scheduled link to other communities, since no road connects Kimmirut to the rest of the territory.

The airfield has one gravel runway, designated 15/33, that is 579 metres (1,899 feet) long, the second shortest in Nunavut. Statistics Canada recorded 634 aircraft movements in 2010.

A new air terminal building was officially opened on 14 March 2025 and replaced a building more than 20 years old. It has a waiting area, a baggage claim area, which replaces the old arrangement of leaving luggage outside, and a display case of local art and carvings. The Government of Nunavut and the Government of Canada shared the cost through the National Trade Corridors Fund. Canadian North flies the scheduled route to Iqaluit.
