## Description

Alberni Valley Regional Airport (YPB) serves Port Alberni on Vancouver Island and is geared towards general aviation, charter, flight training and wildfire operations. It has no cargo terminal, freighter services or dedicated customs clearance for commercial goods, so its freight role is limited to small consignments and courier traffic. Air cargo for the area moves through Nanaimo (YCD), about 80 km east, and above all through Vancouver (YVR) on the mainland, with onward delivery by truck and ferry.
