Arctic Bay Airport (Template:Comma separated entries) is an airport located Script error: No such module "convert". southeast of Arctic Bay, Nunavut, Canada. Until January 12, 2010 Nanisivik Airport, about Script error: No such module "convert". from Arctic Bay, was used for scheduled flights. On January 13, 2010, First Air transferred all air services to Arctic Bay's newly expanded airport with service to Iqaluit and Resolute Bay. Niore Iqalukjuak, mayor of Arctic Bay, said that the move would save community members $40 for the one way taxi ride. At the same time the Government of Nunavut said that the move would save $600,000 a year because of not having to keep the all-weather road clear.[2]

The original runway at Script error: No such module "convert". was the shortest in Nunavut. It was decommissioned in 2010 and is now marked off with two "X"s on either ends. A new runway measuring Script error: No such module "convert".[3] was built to the south, along with a new airport terminal. The airport can currently handle general aviation to smaller turboprop aircraft.
