Today some 160 Iñupiat live on the narrow sandspit between Kotzebue Sound and the Inmachuk River, and Deering Airport (IATA: DRG, ICAO: PADE) keeps them connected. Bering Air serves the roughly one-kilometer gravel strip from Kotzebue; Bypass Mail brings groceries, the summer barge brings fuel. Coastal erosion is gnawing at spit, village and runway alike.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/airports/deering-airport-drg","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/airports/en/deering-airport-drg","provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Frachtportal","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Deering Airport · (IATA: DRG) · Deering, US · 6 m · Cargo Hub"}
