Campbell River Airport FBO

Campbell River Airport operates its own FBO services on northern Vancouver Island, serving as a gateway to some of British Columbia's most prized outdoor destinations. The airport has a modernized air terminal building with amenities including the Fuel Up Cafe, Budget and National car rental counters, and passenger screening facilities. The exclusive pilot lounge has 24/7 access, and lavatory services are available for visiting aircraft. The single runway is 6,500 feet long and grooved, with Jet A-1 fuel available on the ramp. Campbell River is classified as a Canada Border Services Agency airport of entry, capable of processing general aviation aircraft with up to 15 passengers, making it a viable option for private flights arriving from the United States. For charter passengers headed to fishing lodges, wilderness resorts, or the ski slopes at Mount Washington, Campbell River is the most convenient jet-capable airport on the northern half of Vancouver Island. The airport also serves as a hub for floatplane operations, with amphibious Cessna Caravans available to transfer passengers directly to fly-in lodges and remote lakeside cabins throughout the region. Parking includes paved itinerant spots and a grass tie-down area. The terminal experience is straightforward and low-traffic compared to Vancouver or Victoria, which means minimal wait times on arrival. Multiple daily commercial flights connect to Vancouver International Airport's South Terminal, but private aviation passengers benefit from the fast check-in process and uncrowded ramp.
