About Ulukhaktok Holman Airport
Ulukhaktok Holman Airport is the only scheduled air link serving the small Arctic community of Ulukhaktok, located on the west coast of Victoria Island in Canada's Northwest Territories. Fully opened in December 1978, it provides a vital connection for passengers, mail and cargo in a region with no road access to the south.
The airport sits about 3 km from the settlement centre and has a gravel runway roughly 4,300 ft long. Its modest terminal building is arranged around a single waiting area, with check-in and baggage handling carried out in a compact space suited to regional turboprop flights.
Scheduled regional services connect Ulukhaktok with other northern communities and larger centres in the Northwest Territories. Because there is no scheduled public transport in the settlement, onward travel is usually arranged in advance through local vehicles, hotel pick-ups or private transfers.
Facilities at the airport are intentionally simple: a heated waiting room, toilets and a place for arriving passengers to collect baggage. Travellers should bring their own food, water and charged devices, as dining, shopping and banking services are not available in the terminal.
