Mekoryuk Airport — Mekoryuk, United States

Mekoryuk Airport (MYU) is a small state-owned airfield serving the village of Mekoryuk on Nunivak Island in the Bering Sea, Alaska. With a gravel runway and no scheduled jet service, MYU depends on small bush planes operated by regional Alaskan carriers to bring in mail, cargo, and passengers to this isolated Yup'ik community. Nunivak Island is known for its introduced muskox and reindeer herds, and MYU is essentially the only reliable year-round transportation link for residents, since sea access can be blocked by ice for much of the winter. The airport underscores how vital small aviation infrastructure is to remote Alaskan life.
