About Saint-Jean Airport
Saint-Jean Airport is a municipal general aviation airport serving Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu and Quebec's Montérégie region, about 40 km southeast of Montreal. It traces its origins to military use during the Second World War and later transitioned to civilian and general aviation purposes.
Located approximately 3 km northwest of the city centre, the airport is a compact airfield with three asphalt runways and no commercial passenger terminal. It serves private flights, business aviation, flight training and aerospace-related activity along the Richelieu Valley.
The airport is also the main site of the annual International Balloon Festival of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, one of the region's most important events. Ground access is primarily by road, with transfers, taxis and rental cars providing onward connections to the city and greater Montreal.
For general aviation travelers, the facility offers a reception building, washrooms, vending machines, aviation fuel services and FBO support, making it a practical entry point for visitors arriving by private aircraft.
