Essential bush airport serving interior Alaska's McGrath community.

Location
McGrath, United States
McGrath Airport (IATA: MCG, ICAO: PAMC) is a public-use airport located in McGrath, a small community in the Kuskokwim River valley of interior Alaska. It serves as a critical transportation hub for the region, as McGrath has no road connections to the broader Alaska highway system, making air travel the primary means of access. The airport is owned by the State of Alaska and managed under the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities. It supports scheduled passenger service, cargo flights, and general aviation operations essential to the surrounding rural communities.
