Fort Chipewyan Airport — Fort Chipewyan, Canada

Fort Chipewyan Airport, designated YPY, serves the historic community of Fort Chipewyan in northeastern Alberta, one of the oldest settlements in the province, situated near Lake Athabasca. Accessible mainly by air or seasonal winter roads, Fort Chipewyan relies heavily on YPY for transportation of people, food, and supplies throughout the year. The airport's gravel runway supports small commercial and charter aircraft operated by regional carriers. Because the community lies within a remote and ecologically significant area near Wood Buffalo National Park, YPY also facilitates research, conservation work, and Indigenous community travel in this isolated corner of northern Alberta.
