About This Airport

Canadian North Cargo runs Iqaluit (YFB) as one of its core staging points, alongside Ottawa, Montréal, Yellowknife and Edmonton, complete with refrigeration and a truck-to-air network. From the Nunavut capital the carrier distributes goods onward to communities across the eastern Arctic, none of which are connected by road. A large share of the territory's imports arrives by air because the sealift season runs only from late June to October, leaving the flight path as the year-round option for fresh food, medicine and time-critical freight. Customs clearance is handled by the Canada Border Services Agency. Demand has grown to the point that the airport's cargo facility has at times run at capacity. For forwarders serving Nunavut, YFB is a genuine distribution base rather than a passenger stopover.
