About Ivalo Airport
Overview
Ivalo Airport serves the northern Finnish region of Lapland, located at 68.6073°N, 27.4053°E near the municipality of Ivalo. As a medium-sized airport with two asphalt runways, it provides critical transportation infrastructure in a remote Arctic environment. The airport supports regional and national aviation needs in an area characterized by extreme northern latitude conditions.
Flying Conditions
Weather at Ivalo demonstrates significant variability, with Visual Flight Rules (VFR) conditions prevailing 55.6% of the time. Temperature ranges dramatically from -36°C to 21°C, with an average temperature of -5.2°C, presenting substantial environmental challenges for aviation operations. Prevailing winds from the southwest (225°) average 7 knots, with occasional gusts up to 26 knots.
Notable Features
Situated at 481 feet mean sea level, Ivalo Airport features two runways: 04/22 at 8,199 feet and 08/26 at 2,625 feet. Both runways demonstrate 100% favorable wind alignment, with minimal average crosswind components (04/22 at 2.8 knots, 08/26 at 4.1 knots). The airport's high-latitude location ensures unique daylight and seasonal atmospheric conditions.
Approach Considerations
Pilots should anticipate predominantly VFR conditions, with Marginal VFR (MVFR) occurring in 24.3% of observations. Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) and Low IFR conditions are less frequent at 15% and 5.1% respectively. September, December, and January historically offer the most favorable visual flying conditions, providing optimal approach and departure windows.
