Faro Airport

Faro Airport, coded ZFA, is a small airfield located in Faro, Yukon, Canada, not to be confused with the more widely known Faro Airport in Portugal. This remote Yukon community was originally established to support lead-zinc mining operations, and the airport continues to serve local residents with general aviation and charter access. Given Faro's isolation within Yukon's vast wilderness, ZFA provides an essential connection for supplies, medical transport, and travel to Whitehorse. Though modest in scale, the airport remains a vital piece of infrastructure sustaining this small northern mining town within Canada's sparsely populated territorial north.
