ANV Airport (Anvik Airport) – Cargo, Address, Transit

About This Airport

When the ice goes out on the lower Yukon each spring, Anvik switches supply modes: barges take the heavy freight, and the airport handles everything that cannot wait. Anvik Airport (IATA: ANV, ICAO: PANV), operated by the State of Alaska, has a single 2,960-by-75-foot gravel runway (about 900 m), sized for bush aircraft rather than freighters. In 2015 it recorded roughly 259,000 lbs of freight (about 118 t) and 1,028 passengers — modest on paper, essential in practice. Mail, groceries and medicine reach this Deg Hit'an Athabascan village through Alaska's Bypass Mail system, flown in by carriers such as Grant Aviation and Everts Air out of Anchorage and Fairbanks. There is no road connection, so fuel and building materials arrive by summer barge. Proposed U.S. Postal Service reforms discussed in 2025 have raised concerns across Alaska about the future of Bypass Mail and the rural supply chain that depends on it. Shippers consolidate in Anchorage (ANC) and tranship via Aniak (ANI) or Bethel (BET); all traffic is domestic U.S., so no customs clearance applies.
