Very cute little airport. It is located on Digby Island. To get to the island you would need to take a ferry. Only tiny planes would land at PR Airport. There are two departing flights and two arrival flights every day. Basically the same plane goes back and forth between Vancouver and PR. So, I landed at the airport and first thing I did was to grab my checked bags. After grabbing the bags there was a shuttle bus that was waiting for me. Loaded my luggage onto the giant truck/van and then got onto the chartered bus that went onto the ferry and took me to Prince Rupert downtown. My baggage was waiting for me downtown. It was definitely a long journey. Also don't think about swimming from Digby island to Prince Rupert. Its too far to swim..... The ferry ride took about 20 mins. Make sure you ate before coming to the airport. There is no food for purchase at this airport. I flew in from Vancouver and the flight took about 2 hrs plus getting my check bags and getting on the shuttle bus and onto the ferry and to downtown it some how equated to about 3 hours in total. WOW what a trip to get to Prince Rupert Island. read more

This is a cute little airport in Prince Rupert. Well, that's not quite right. It's on Digby Island. There's a 15 minute ferry ride from the airport to Prince Rupert. If your next door neighbors -- the nice ones, not the neighbors on the other side -- ran an airport, this is what it would look like. Brick, one story building. One gate. Two flights a day. A vending machine. Very clean. The security lady probably has to restock the vending machine when she's done scanning the passengers. read more
