Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Closure Date

Not applicable. The airport at this location, Moose Lake Airport (official ICAO identifier: CJB4), is currently open and operational. The 'closed' status associated with the non-official identifier CA-0241 appears to be an error in outdated or non-authoritative aviation databases.

Reason for Closure

Not applicable, as the airport has not been closed. It remains a vital and active transportation link for the community.

Current Status

The site is an active, registered public aerodrome operated by the Government of Manitoba (Manitoba Infrastructure). Its official identifier is CJB4. The airport features a single gravel runway (10/28) with dimensions of approximately 3,000 by 75 feet. It is regularly served by regional air carriers, such as Missinippi Airways, and is used by various charter and medevac aircraft.

Historical Significance

Moose Lake Airport is a critical piece of infrastructure for the remote Mosakahiken Cree Nation (Moose Lake First Nation) in northern Manitoba. Historically, as today, its primary role is to provide year-round, reliable access for a community with limited road connectivity. Operations have always focused on essential services, including:
- Scheduled passenger flights connecting residents to larger hubs like The Pas and Winnipeg.
- Air ambulance (medevac) flights for urgent medical care.
- Charter flights for government, business, and private travel.
- Cargo and mail transport, delivering essential goods, food, and supplies.
The airport is indispensable for the social, economic, and medical well-being of the community.

Reopening Prospects

Not applicable, as the airport is currently open and has no plans for closure. Efforts are focused on ongoing maintenance and potential upgrades to ensure its continued safety and operational capacity for the community it serves.
