Fly into Charlottetown Prince Edward Island

Your Island Adventure Begins the Moment You Land

There's something that happens when you step off the plane in Prince Edward Island. The pace slows, the air smells different, and somehow you feel lighter.

The Charlottetown Alexander B. Campbell Airport, also known as YYG, is PEI's only commercial airport and your first true taste of Island hospitality. A recent transformation of the check-in hall means your journey starts in a bright, welcoming space that feels as warm as the Island itself. From curbside to gate, everything is easy, unhurried, and unmistakably PEI.

Tucked just minutes from downtown Charlottetown, YYG connects PEI to major hubs across Canada, including Toronto, Montréal, Ottawa, Calgary, and Edmonton, with direct service from Air Canada, Porter Airlines, WestJet, and Flair. Getting here has never been easier or more worth it.

Plan your trip to Prince Edward Island and let YYG be your first Island memory. That same ease you feel the moment you land, unhurried, uncomplicated, and genuinely welcoming, is exactly what PEI delivers from shore to shore. The Island has a way of slowing everything down to just the right speed, and it all starts here.
