About Maxson Airfield
Maxson Airfield is a small general aviation airport serving Alexandria Bay and the Thousand Islands region of Jefferson County, New York. It sits roughly two miles south of the village center, close to the St. Lawrence River and the Canadian border.
The airport has a single asphalt runway, 06/24, about 4,280 feet long, and is used mainly for private, charter and local general aviation flights. Although Mohawk Airlines once provided scheduled commercial service here, today the field functions as a compact general aviation facility rather than a commercial airline hub.
Travelers reach the airfield by road, typically via State Route 26, and continue to Alexandria Bay, nearby Clayton, or the many waterfront resorts and attractions of the Thousand Islands by car, taxi or pre-arranged transfer. Larger regional airports such as Watertown International Airport are also within driving distance for scheduled airline service.
With its short distance from town and direct access to the Thousand Islands, Maxson Airfield offers a convenient arrival point for private flyers visiting the region, though on-site services are limited compared with full-service airports.
