Ottawa is easily accessible by air, rail or road.

Ottawa by air

Check with your favourite airline for daily flights into the Ottawa International Airport, or visit the airport website for information about the airport, directions and flights. The Airport operates on a 24-hour basis, and offers a number of daily scheduled non-stop flights to cities in Canada, U.S. and Europe. The airport recently unveiled its new terminal, which includes its own U.S. Customs and Immigration pre-clearance facility.

Two small airports complement the Ottawa region’s air capacity. The Carp Airport has evolved into a commuter airport, conveniently located close to many of the high-technology industries in the west part of the region. The Gatineau-Ottawa Executive Airport serves the Outaouais region and other areas of Québec.

All three airports provide access to, and services for, corporate aircraft.
