Sachigo Lake Airport, (IATA: ZPB, ICAO: CZPB), is located 1.5 nautical miles (2.8 km; 1.7 mi) north of the First Nations community of Sachigo Lake, Ontario, Canada.
Because Sachigo Lake First Nation is a "dry" community that forbids alcohol, each arriving passenger has their luggage searched in a separate arrivals building to make sure they are not bringing any contraband in with them.
