St Michael Airport guide

St. Michael Airport is a state-owned, public-use airport about 2 miles west of the city of St. Michael, on the southern shore of Norton Sound in western Alaska. The FAA activated the field in August 1995. Its codes are SMK (IATA), PAMK (ICAO) and SMK (FAA). The airport sits at 98 feet above sea level on about 355 acres.

It has one gravel runway, 2/20, measuring 4,001 by 75 feet. The runway has medium-intensity edge lights and slopes up 32 feet from the northeast end to the southwest end. The surface is reported in good condition. There is no control tower.

Bering Air flies scheduled service to Nome and Stebbins, and Ryan Air serves Stebbins and Unalakleet. St. Michael has no road link to other towns, so the airport carries most of the community's passenger and freight traffic outside the summer barge and river season.
