Gloucester is served by 5 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport (YOW), 4 km (2 mi) from the centre, whose 10,000-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft. The alternatives are Ottawa / Rockcliffe Airport (YRO, 12 km), Ottawa / Gatineau Airport (YND, 20 km), Ogdensburg International Airport (OGS, 75 km), Massena International Airport Richards Field (MSS, 77 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport | YOW | 4 km (2 mi) | 10,000 ft | 374 ft |
| Ottawa / Rockcliffe Airport (regional) | YRO | 12 km (7 mi) | 3,300 ft | 188 ft |
| Ottawa / Gatineau Airport (regional) | YND | 20 km (12 mi) | 6,000 ft | 211 ft |
| Ogdensburg International Airport (regional) | OGS | 75 km (47 mi) | 6,400 ft | 297 ft |
| Massena International Airport Richards Field (regional) | MSS | 77 km (48 mi) | 5,601 ft | 215 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 10,000 ft, YOW can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 374 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
