About Mekoryuk Airport
Mekoryuk Airport is a state-owned public-use airport serving the village of Mekoryuk on Nunivak Island in the Bethel Census Area of western Alaska. It provides an essential air link between the island and regional hubs such as Bethel.
Located about 6 km (3 nautical miles) west of central Mekoryuk, the airport has a single gravel runway, 06/24, measuring 3,001 by 75 feet (915 by 23 metres), with medium-intensity edge lighting and visual approach aids. The facility has no control tower and is unattended.
Because Nunivak Island has no road connection to the mainland, air travel is the main way to reach Mekoryuk; onward movement is mostly by local road, arranged transfer, or other village transport. The airport's compact size and rural setting keep operations simple and suited to small regional aircraft.
