Facilities

Chefornak Airport has one runway designated 16/34 with a gravel and dirt surface measuring 2,500 by 28 feet (762 x 9 m).[1]

A new airstrip has been built further out from the village due to concerns with the proximity of the current airstrip to the school and pedestrian traffic, however, the runway must settle for several years before it is ready to be used.
