Aupaluk, on the western shore of Ungava Bay (Hopes Advance Bay), is Nunavik's smallest Inuit community (pop. ~233) and has no road access; Air Inuit provides the only scheduled air service, linking Aupaluk to Kuujjuaq, Kangirsuk and Tasiujaq on a regional hub-and-spoke network centered on Kuujjuaq.

Air Inuit
Air Inuit is the sole scheduled carrier serving Aupaluk Airport, with routes to Kuujjuaq, Tasiujaq, and Kangirsuk. As the only airline operating at this remote Nunavik station it self-handles its own aircraft, passenger check-in, and baggage; no independent FBO or third-party ground handler was found here (airport FBO directories list none on file for CYLA/YPJ).

Cargo handling

Air Inuit
Air Inuit carries freight and community resupply as part of its scheduled Nunavik flights into Aupaluk. The airline's own published list of staffed cargo shipping counters (Inukjuak, Kuujjuaq, Kuujjuaraapik, La Grande, Montreal, Puvirnituq, Quebec City, Salluit) does not include Aupaluk, indicating cargo here is handled by the same self-handling station staff rather than a dedicated cargo agent or independent handler.
