Saint Mary's Airport

Saint Mary’s Airport is a small but vital regional airport serving the village of St. Mary’s and surrounding communities in western Alaska, opened in the mid-20th century (circa 1950s) and centered around a single modest terminal. As the primary air link for residents and cargo, it connects regularly to the regional hub of Bethel and onward services to Anchorage via regional carriers, and it functions as a base for small operators such as Ravn Alaska, Bering Air and Grant Aviation. Ground access is limited to local roads and charters, so travelers should budget extra for flights—air travel here tends to be pricier than in the lower 48.
