On April 13, 1939, the first aircraft, an Aeronca piloted by Cyril Jackson, officially touched down at Kamloops Airport. Soon thereafter, the airport became a port of entry under the Customs Act.

Since then, the airport has become an important regional gateway for business and tourism. We are proud to safely and efficiently serve the Kamloops area, driving economic activity and investing in our community.

Kamloops Airport is committed to providing an accommodating and trouble-free airport experience to persons with disabilities and special needs, and is subject to the Canadian Transportation Agency Accessible Transportation for Persons with Disabilities Regulations.
