Airport contact
Certified regional Airport of Entry on Vancouver Island's east coast, owned and operated by the City of Campbell River since 1959; served year-round by Pacific Coastal Airlines (Saab 340, double-daily to Vancouver South Terminal) and, since May 15, 2026, seasonally by WestJet Encore to Calgary. Harbour Air's new Vancouver route (launched Jul 6, 2026) does NOT operate from this airport - it lands at the separate Campbell River Water Aerodrome at Tyee Spit, a seaplane base elsewhere in the city. No official annual passenger total is publicly disclosed; pax field above is a 2010 total-aircraft-movements figure (30,604), not a passenger count, retained only as the sole public traffic statistic found.

Ground handling
Available
Executive Aviation
On-field ground handling company operating at 2000 Jubilee Parkway (YBL), confirmed via a 2026 job posting for the station and the airport's own announcement; provides above-wing (check-in, boarding, baggage) and below-wing (fuelling, pushback/tow, ground power, lavatory/potable water, air-start) services. Presence tied to WestJet Encore's new seasonal Calgary route (started May 15, 2026); not yet listed as a station on the company's own website, so year-round continuity is unconfirmed. Airport's own FAQ states there is no formal FBO on-site, so this is described as a ground handler rather than an FBO.
