Gateway to Ontario's remote subarctic James Bay coast.

Location

Moosonee, Canada

Moosonee Airport (IATA: YMO, ICAO: CYMO) is a small regional airport serving the town of Moosonee, Ontario, Canada, situated on the southern shore of James Bay. As Moosonee has no road connection to the provincial highway network, the airport plays a vital role in providing year-round access to the community and surrounding First Nations communities. The airport is owned and operated by the Ontario Ministry of Transportation and handles scheduled passenger service as well as cargo, charter, and medevac flights. It serves as a critical lifeline for residents, particularly during periods when ice roads or the Polar Bear Express train are unavailable or impractical.

Terminals

The airport has a small, single terminal building suited to the low passenger volumes of a remote northern community.

Getting to & from

There is no road access to Moosonee; ground transport within the town is limited, but the Ontario Northland Polar Bear Express rail service connects Moosonee to Cochrane seasonally.

Airlines here

Bearskin Airlines (now operating under the Northern Ontario subsidiary network) and Air Creebec have historically provided scheduled service to Moosonee.
