Many of the small airports in remote northern Canada have webcams so that people who wish to fly in can visually check the local weather.
Arviat Airport (IATA: YEK, ICAO: CYEK) is located at Arviat, Nunavut, Canada, and is operated by the government of Nunavut. Local taxis provide service between the hamlet and the airport for $7. Two Airlines serve the airport: Calm Air and Nolinor Aviation.
Arviat (formerly called Eskimo Point until 1 June 1989) is a predominantly Inuit hamlet located on the western shore of Hudson Bay in the Kivalliq Region of Nunavut, Canada. Arviat ("place of the bowhead whale") is derived from the Inuktitut word arviq meaning "Bowhead whale". Earlier in history, its name was Tikirajualaaq ("a little long point"), and Ittaliurvik, ("a place where the people make tents"). Close to 3000 people lived in Arviat as of 2021.
