Prince George Airport

Prince George Airport traces its roots to the mid-20th century and today operates a single main passenger terminal, serving as the primary air gateway for northern British Columbia. As a medium-sized regional airport, it handles scheduled flights, cargo and charter services and connects the city of Prince George (about 7 km south) with Vancouver, Calgary and northern communities. Ground access is straightforward via Highway 97 with car rental, taxis, shuttles and local transit linking the terminal to downtown. Fares are generally competitive for a regional hub—often affordable on major carriers but sometimes higher on remote routes—and the airport functions as a regional base for operators like Northern Thunderbird Air while Air Canada and WestJet maintain regular services.
