On May 29, the Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité durable du Québec and the Kativik Regional Government informed users of the Puvirnituq (YPX) airport that runway, taxiway, and apron resurfacing and stabilization work is scheduled from mid-June to mid-September 2025.
To ensure essential air service is maintained throughout the period, Air Inuit has implemented a contingency plan.
**UPDATE**
We invite users of Puvirnituq Airport to limit travel throughout the construction period to prioritize access for essential services and workers.
