Stratford Municipal Airport

Stratford Municipal Airport is a mere 6 kilometres north of the City, on 482 acres in the Township of Perth East, in Perth County.

The airport was recently expanded to better serve the needs of the business community as well as visitors to Stratford. It boasts modern runways and state-of-the-art facilities equipped to handle air traffic ranging from Dash 8s (DHC-8) to helicopters. A flight school is also available.

The airport was developed privately in 1964 and later purchased by the City of Stratford. A major redevelopment began in 1988, including a second runway, 05-23. Over the next several years a new terminal building, maintenance shed, private hanger development, fuel system, expanded apron and an upgrade to runway 17-35 were completed. The final phase was completed in 1993 when runway 05-23 was extended to 5000 feet. Corporate, freight, training and recreational flights comprise the approximate 13,000 annual aircraft movements. The Stratford airport is home to 44 commercial and private aircraft.
