Kingston Airport
Kingston Norman Rogers Airport or YGK Airport (IATA: YGK , ICAO: CYGK ), also known as Kingston Airport , is the main airport serving Kingston, Ontario and its metropolitan area. The airport is named after former MP Norman McLeod Rogers (Kingston City 1935–1940) , Minister of Labour and then National Defence (Canada) in Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King’s cabinet. Located 4.3 nautical miles (8.0 km; 4.9 mi) west of downtown Kingston, Ontario, in the west end of the city, it is the largest airport in the region, in 2019 it was reported that 70,000 people travel through the airport each year.
This is my First Event and I’m really exited for the journey across Canada. We are Flying from Kingston because it has lots of history and served an important role in World War Two. Here they trained pilots to serve over in Europe and used to have three runways because the airport could be used no matter which way the wind was blowing. They took down one runway because it was not needed in 2023.
