Point Lay LRRS Airport — Point Lay, United States

PIZ designates Point Lay LRRS Airport, an airstrip attached to a Long Range Radar Site in Point Lay, a small Iñupiat village on Alaska's northwest coast along the Chukchi Sea. Unlike commercial medium airports, PIZ primarily supports the radar station's operational and logistical needs as part of the North Warning System, a joint U.S.-Canada early warning radar network, alongside essential passenger and cargo service for the isolated village community. Scheduled flights connect Point Lay to regional hubs like Utqiagvik or Kotzebue, since no road access exists. PIZ remains a critical lifeline for residents, supplementing subsistence hunting and fishing activities in this remote Arctic location.
