Remote Alaskan gateway serving St. Lawrence Island's Yupik community.

Location
Savoonga, United States
Savoonga Airport (SVA/PASA) is a small public-use airport located in Savoonga, a Native Yupik village situated on St. Lawrence Island in the Bering Sea, Alaska. The airport serves as a vital lifeline for the isolated community, which has no road connections to the rest of Alaska or the mainland United States. The airport is owned and operated by the State of Alaska and primarily handles small turboprop aircraft providing essential passenger and cargo services. Given the remote Arctic location, flights are subject to frequent weather delays and cancellations due to fog, wind, and severe winter conditions. Savoonga is one of the most isolated communities in the United States, and the airport is critical for medical evacuations, mail delivery, and general supply transport. Bering Air is a primary operator serving the route from Nome, Alaska.
Terminals
The airport has a small, basic terminal building consistent with rural Alaskan village airports, with minimal passenger amenities.
Getting to & from
There is no public ground transportation at the airport; the village of Savoonga is accessible only by foot, ATV, or snowmobile within the community.
Airlines here
