About St. Theresa Point Airport
St. Theresa Point Airport is a small regional airport serving St. Theresa Point First Nation and the surrounding Island Lake area in northern Manitoba. Located on St Mary Island, about 1.5 km north of the community, it provides an essential air link for a remote region with limited year-round road access. The airport mainly handles domestic flights, including scheduled regional services to Winnipeg, along with charter, cargo and medevac operations. Its single crushed-rock runway is 3,393 feet long, and passenger processing is concentrated in one compact terminal building. Because the community is accessible by air and seasonal winter roads, the airport is a key gateway for residents, workers and visitors travelling between northern Manitoba and Winnipeg, roughly 470 km to the south. Ground connections to St. Theresa Point depend on the season and may involve boat, winter-road vehicle or helicopter transfers.
