Cambridge Bay Airport

Cambridge Bay Airport, opened in the early 1970s, is a compact single‑terminal facility serving Cambridge Bay and the Kitikmeot Region of Nunavut on Victoria Island. Small in size but regionally important, it offers scheduled and charter services with connections to Yellowknife, Iqaluit and neighbouring communities, and handles cargo and medevac flights as well. Ground access is straightforward—a short drive from town with local taxis and occasional shuttle services rather than extensive public transit. Airfares are generally higher than southern routes because of remoteness, though Canadian North and several regional charter operators base operations here, so booking in advance can help you score better fares and cheap flights to Cambridge Bay.
