Wrangell Airport — Wrangell, United States

Wrangell Airport, coded WRG, serves the city of Wrangell on Wrangell Island in Southeast Alaska, an area accessible primarily by air and sea due to the rugged, roadless terrain typical of the Alaska Panhandle. The airport is a critical link for residents, connecting the community to Ketchikan, Juneau, and other Southeast Alaska towns via regional carriers. Wrangell's economy has historically centered on fishing and timber, and air service supports both commerce and essential travel for medical care and supplies. Given Alaska's reliance on aviation in areas lacking highway connections, WRG exemplifies the small but indispensable airports scattered throughout the state's coastal communities.
