Gateway to Cape Cod's iconic outermost tip.

Location
Provincetown, United States
Provincetown Municipal Airport (PVC) is a small general aviation and commuter airport located on the tip of Cape Cod in Provincetown, Massachusetts. It serves as a vital link connecting the remote community to Boston and other regional destinations, particularly during the busy summer tourist season. The airport features a single runway and handles a modest volume of scheduled and charter flights. Its location on the narrow peninsula means the airfield is surrounded by water on multiple sides, making approaches visually dramatic and requiring attentive piloting. The airport is owned and operated by the Town of Provincetown. Given Provincetown's status as a popular arts, culture, and LGBTQ+ destination, the airport sees significant seasonal traffic from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Air service has historically been provided by Cape Air, connecting passengers to Boston Logan International Airport.
Terminals
The airport has a single, small terminal building suited to its low-volume regional commuter operations.
Getting to & from
