## Description

Air Canada, WestJet and Pacific Coastal Airlines link Comox Valley Airport to Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Kelowna, serving central and northern Vancouver Island. The field shares its runway – at 3,048 metres the island's longest – with Canadian Forces Base Comox, home to the RCAF's CP-140 Aurora maritime patrol squadron. Belly capacity on the scheduled turboprop and jet services moves time-sensitive freight, and the airport actively markets corporate and cargo charter handling. For full-scale scheduled freight, forwarders route via Vancouver International (YVR) on the mainland. YQQ remains a dependable feeder for the Comox Valley's forestry, aquaculture and resource economy.
