## Description

Clyde River Airport (IATA: YCY, ICAO: CYCY) serves an Inuit community on the east coast of Baffin Island in Nunavut, Canada, which has neither road access nor year-round sea access. Its gravel runway takes turboprop aircraft; scheduled and charter services from Iqaluit carry passengers, mail and urgent goods, while staple food, fuel and construction material arrive on the summer sealift. There is no cargo terminal, handling agent or customs post, but regular small-volume air freight is part of daily life, as at other Arctic community airports. Air cargo is consolidated at Iqaluit (YFB), with Ottawa (YOW) and Montréal (YUL) as the southern connecting points.
