Location

Akiak, United States

Akiak Airport (IATA: AKI, ICAO: PFAK) is a small public-use airport serving the rural village of Akiak, Alaska, located along the Kuskokwim River in western Alaska. The airport is a critical transportation link for this remote community, which has no road connections to the broader Alaska highway system. The airport is owned by the State of Alaska and operates a single gravel runway. It primarily handles small general aviation and commuter aircraft, supporting mail delivery, cargo, and passenger service to surrounding villages in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region.

Terminals

The airport has no formal terminal building; it operates as a basic airstrip facility typical of rural Alaskan bush airports.

Getting to & from

There is no road access to Akiak from outside the village; the airport and the Kuskokwim River (by boat in summer and snowmachine in winter) are the primary means of travel.
