About Abbotsford International Airport
Overview
Abbotsford International Airport serves the Fraser Valley region in British Columbia, Canada, located approximately 40 miles east of Vancouver. As a medium-sized airport with three runways, it supports diverse aviation operations including commercial, cargo, and general aviation traffic. The airport's elevation of 195 feet MSL and strategic location make it a key transportation hub in southwestern British Columbia.
Flying Conditions
Abbotsford experiences predominantly Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions, with 72.2% of observations supporting clear weather operations. Temperature ranges from -3°C to 30°C, with an average of 8.7°C, creating relatively stable flying conditions. Prevailing winds from the south (180°) average 6.4 knots, with occasional stronger gusts up to 28 knots. Pilots should note that September, October, and January consistently offer the best VFR conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features three runways with varying lengths and surfaces: a 9,600-foot paved runway (07/25), a 5,328-foot asphalt runway (01/19), and a 1,500-foot grass runway (01L/19R). All runways demonstrate favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and minimal average crosswind components. The geographic positioning provides pilots with multiple approach and departure options depending on meteorological conditions.
Approach Considerations
Wind conditions suggest runway 07/25 as the primary operational runway, with an average crosswind of 4.4 knots. Visibility averages 15.1 statute miles, with only 2.2% of observations showing reduced visibility below 3 miles. Pilots should be prepared for occasional fog (2% of observations) and maintain situational awareness during marginal weather. The consistently low crosswind values across all runways provide flexibility in aircraft positioning and landing strategies.
