Gogebic County Airport

Gogebic County Airport, serving Ironwood and the western Upper Peninsula, opened in the mid-20th century and operates from a single small terminal that handles both scheduled regional flights and general aviation. As the region’s primary air link, it’s modest in size but important for access to ski areas, Lake Superior shorelines and nearby Hurley, Wisconsin; the airport is a short drive from downtown Ironwood on US‑2 with taxi, shuttle and rental-car options but limited public transit. Service is typically provided by regional carriers under the Essential Air Service program rather than major hubs, so fares can be higher than at big-city airports, though seasonal deals do appear.
