Lourdes-de-Blanc-Sablon Airport

Lourdes-de-Blanc-Sablon Airport (IATA: YBX, ICAO: CYBX) is a small regional airport located in Blanc-Sablon, Quebec, situated at the border between Quebec and Labrador on the Lower North Shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. It serves as a critical transportation link for this remote community, which has no road connections to the rest of Quebec's highway network. The airport is operated by Transport Canada and provides essential air service for residents, medical evacuations, and cargo supply to the isolated region. Given the area's geographic isolation, air travel is one of the primary means of accessing the community year-round. Passenger traffic is modest, reflecting the small population of the surrounding area. The airport supports scheduled regional flights connecting Blanc-Sablon to larger centres including Quebec City and other coastal communities.
