Fredericton International Airport or “YFC” (its international designation) is just southeast of the City of Fredericton city limits, offers direct air links to Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Halifax, and the Caribbean.

Fredericton’s airport has been operating since 1951, and expanded in the early 1960s and again in the mid-1980s. In 2001, the airport was privatized and turned over to the Greater Fredericton Airport Authority. The Fredericton Airport is serviced by Air Canada, Air Transat, WestJet, Porter and Sunwing. Capital Airways, Forest Protection Limited, Moncton Flight College (Fredericton campus) and Canadian Helicopters are also based here. In addition, the airport services the air transportation needs of Canadian Forces Base Gagetown. The airport has two runways: 09/27, which is 8010 ft; and 15/33, which is 6000 ft.

The Airport Terminal Building facilities include a restaurant and lounge, a gift shop, car rental stations and self-service check-in kiosks. Free wireless Internet is available throughout the terminal.

The friendly Commissionaires are available to assist you at any time if you have questions or issues while you are at the airport.

Drop off/Pick up Areas

A designated area in front of the Departures Entrance allows for greater convenience when dropping off passengers. As at all Canadian airports, for safety and security reasons, this area is for drop off only and vehicles may not be parked by the curb. Drivers are asked not to leave their vehicles unattended at the curb in front of the terminal building. Unattended vehicles may be ticketed or towed at the owner’s expense.

Passengers can be picked up at the curb in front of Arrivals, but only as they exit the terminal building. Please do not wait in this area.

Remember – if you need a bit of extra time or want to walk your family into the terminal, we offer 15 minutes free parking in the short term parking lot.

For further information, please contact the airport at (506) 460-0920.
