Bettles Airport (BTT/PABT) is a small public-use airport located in Bettles, a remote community in the Interior region of Alaska, United States. It serves as a critical air access point for the surrounding wilderness, including Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve. The airport is owned by the State of Alaska and primarily supports bush flying operations, general aviation, and air taxi services that connect isolated communities and support outdoor recreation, hunting, and fishing expeditions. Given the absence of road access to Bettles, the airport functions as the primary lifeline for residents and visitors. Bettles sits within one of the most sparsely populated regions of Alaska, and the airport reflects the essential role that aviation plays in remote Alaskan communities. Flights often operate under challenging conditions given the subarctic climate and extreme seasonal temperature variations.
