Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 21, 2025
Taxis

Local taxi services are the primary mode of transportation. Taxis are not typically waiting at the airport, so they must be called upon arrival. It is recommended to get a local taxi number from your airline or accommodation provider before you travel.

Rental Cars

There are no standard car rental agencies (e.g., Hertz, Avis, Enterprise) in Puvirnituq. Vehicle rentals, such as a truck or ATV, may sometimes be arranged directly through local businesses or the Co-op hotel, but this requires significant advance planning and is not a guaranteed service.

Public Transportation

There is no formal public transportation system, such as a city bus service, in Puvirnituq. The community is small and walkable. Some local hotels or organizations may offer pre-arranged shuttle services for their guests or clients.

NOTAM Request Posted by smughal on February 18, 2025

Any possibility that the NOTAMs from CFPS can be implemented here?

re: Is 100 Octane Fuel Available? Posted by david on August 29, 2011

According to the Canada Flight Supplement, CYPX does have 100LL available retail (extremely rare for an airport in the Canadian North). You need to give prior notice by calling 819-988-2625 during weekday hours, and have to give seven days advance notice if you plan to pay by credit card. More details in the CFS (which you should have if you're flying up that way).

Unfortunately, it's not like buying gas down south - you can't just show up, ask for a fill, and then hand over your VISA. Still, it beats having to negotiate privately to buy barrels of avgas.

Is 100 octane fuel available at the airport?
