Kasabonika Airport guide

Kasabonika Airport (ICAO CYAQ) serves Kasabonika Lake First Nation, an Oji-Cree community in the Kenora District of northwestern Ontario. The airfield lies about 1.9 km west of the community and sits at an elevation of 673 ft.

The airport has a single gravel runway, 03/21, 1,073 m (3,519 ft) long. It has no published passenger statistics.

The community has no roads into it, so the airstrip is its only year-round link to the outside. Wasaya Airways flies daily passenger and cargo service, with scheduled flights to Sioux Lookout and Webequie. Wasaya also carries cargo to supply the local Northern Store and provides Canada Post mail service. North Star Air flies cargo on request and handles package mail for Canada Post. Passengers should carry the identification their airline requires for remote northern flights, and baggage allowances on small aircraft are often tighter than on mainline routes. Schedules change by season, so confirm flight times with the airline before travelling.
