About La Grande Rivière Airport

La Grande Rivière Airport (IATA: YGL, ICAO: CYGL) is an airfield location about 30 km (19 mi) south southwest of Radisson, Quebec, Canada. It is used mostly to shuttle Hydro-Québec personnel between Radisson and the larger cities in Quebec, but it is also served by regular scheduled flights of Air Inuit. Passengers from Nunavik region flying south to Montreal go through security at this airport instead of their origin airport.

Air Creebec also served the airport until March 2012.

During the mid- and late 1970s, Nordair operated scheduled passenger flights nonstop to Montreal Dorval Airport (now Trudeau International Airport) with Boeing 737-200 jetliners on a weekly basis.
