Frequently asked questions
Is customs available at CYFJ for international arrivals?
Mont-Tremblant International Airport holds AOE/15 customs status, meaning on-site clearance is available but limited to fifteen persons per aircraft. Crews planning arrivals with larger passenger counts need to coordinate ahead of time since the fifteen-person cap applies to the airport of entry designation itself. This restricted status distinguishes CYFJ from unrestricted ports and should factor into trip planning for group charters. The designation applies to the AOE/15 customs type recorded for this airport.
What is the runway configuration at Mont-Tremblant International Airport?
Mont-Tremblant International Airport, identified as CYFJ, operates a single paved runway, 02/20, measuring 5,587 feet long and 100 feet wide. The surface is asphalt, and this same length figure defines the airport's maximum paved runway distance. With only one runway available, wind coverage is limited to the 02/20 orientation. Operators should account for this single-runway layout when evaluating crosswind conditions for CYFJ.
How much business aviation traffic does CYFJ handle annually?
CYFJ recorded 709 business aviation operations out of 798 total annual operations, according to FAA TFMSC data for 2025. As this is a Canadian airport, the figure reflects cross-border traffic as tracked by the FAA rather than the airport's full operational count. Monthly bizav activity ranged from a low of 17 operations in April to a high of 87 in December. This traffic pattern places Mont-Tremblant International Airport in the top operational tier tracked by Skystar.
What are typical winter temperatures at Mont-Tremblant International Airport?
Winter conditions at CYFJ are cold, with January averaging a high of 22.1°F and around 30.6 days per month below freezing according to climate normals. February is similar, averaging 26.1°F with roughly 27.9 days below 32°F. December also runs cold, averaging 27.5°F with about 29.6 days below freezing. Crews operating into Mont-Tremblant International Airport during these months should plan for sustained sub-freezing conditions across the full winter period.
How far is CYFJ from the nearest airport, and what is its elevation?
Mont-Tremblant International Airport sits at an elevation of 827 feet, and the nearest neighboring facility is Mont Laurier Airport, located 34.27 nautical miles away on a bearing of 286 degrees. This distance places CYFJ well separated from its closest charted neighbor, which is relevant for diversion planning in the region. The airport is roughly 149.5 nautical miles from the nearest major metro area. These figures help characterize the airport's relatively remote position within Quebec's La Macaza area.
