Circle City Airport (IATA: IRC, ICAO: PACR, FAA LID: CRC) is a state-owned public-use airport located in Circle[1] (also known as Circle City), in the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area of the U.S. state of Alaska. It is also known as Circle City (New) Airport.[1] Scheduled commercial airline service is subsidized by the Essential Air Service program.
