Klawock Airport

Klawock Airport serves the small community of Klawock on Prince of Wales Island in southeast Alaska, one of the many roadless or lightly connected settlements across the region that depend on air links to reach the wider state. Its single asphalt runway stretches about 5,000 feet at an elevation of just 80 feet, close to the coastal waters that define this part of the Alexander Archipelago. Flights here connect residents and visitors with regional hubs, supporting travel, mail, and supply runs that would otherwise rely on ferries. For a rural island community, the KLW code marks a modest but essential gateway between Prince of Wales Island and the rest of Alaska.
