It is the main air link for the Heiltsuk community on Campbell Island and provides scheduled and charter flights that connect the area with Vancouver and nearby coastal communities.
The airport is located about 2 km (1 mile) northwest of Bella Bella village and has one small passenger terminal and a short paved runway. Scheduled service is operated by Pacific Coastal Airlines, with additional charter connections to places such as Klemtu and Port Hardy, especially during the summer.
A paved road connects the airport to Bella Bella village, and travellers can continue by taxi, local transport or pre-arranged transfers. Ferry connections from the area also serve other communities and islands along the coast.
Because it is a small regional airport, facilities are limited and operations take place during daylight hours. Travellers should plan connections and services in advance, but the airport remains an essential gateway to the Great Bear Rainforest and the surrounding coastal region.
