| Qualicum Beach Airport |
Welcome to the Qualicum Beach Airport! The following is provided for you as a source of information regarding the Qualicum Beach Municipal Airport. As you will see from the following reports and statistics, the Qualicum Beach Airport has been in existence since 1954 and it is still a viable entity for not only Qualicum Beach, but also all of District 69. It is hoped that we will continue to augment the services that we offer to the flying public and continue to receive assistance from both D.O.T. and M.O.T. for our future success as a community airport.
