About Matagami Airport

Matagami Airport is the main airport serving the small town of Matagami in the Nord-du-Québec region of Quebec. Operated by Transports Québec, it supports regional aviation needs and access to the wider James Bay area.

Located approximately 11 km west of the town centre, the airport has a single asphalt runway, 15/33, measuring about 1,524 m. It mainly handles general aviation, regional and charter flights rather than large-scale scheduled passenger services.

The airport is reached by road from Matagami, which sits at the northern terminus of Route 109 and the start of the James Bay Road. Travelers can continue to the town centre or connect onward into the surrounding region by private transfer, taxi or rental car.

As a small northern airport, passenger facilities are limited but provide the basic services needed for arrivals and departures. The airport plays an important role in supporting access to mining, forestry and remote communities in northern Quebec.
