About Ottawa / Gatineau Airport

Gatineau-Ottawa Executive Airport (French: Aéroport Exécutif Gatineau-Ottawa or Ottawa/Gatineau Airport) (IATA: YND, ICAO: CYND) is an international airport serving Gatineau, Quebec, Canada, and its metropolitan area known as the National Capital Region.

The airport is equipped with Canada Customs facilities for aircraft coming from outside Canada, car rental counters, and restaurant services. It has a single, 6,000 ft × 150 ft (1,829 m × 46 m) asphalt runway oriented east–west. Since January 2017, the airport's Quebec City route has been serviced by Air Liaison. Most residents of Gatineau use the nearby Ottawa Macdonald–Cartier International Airport, or travel to Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport.

The airport was inaugurated in 1978 and transferred to the City of Gatineau in 1991.

The airport houses the Vintage Wings of Canada, a nationwide non-for-profit organization that educates youth by use of vintage aircraft. The airport hosts an annual Aero Gatineau-Ottawa air show.
