Velikiy Ustyug Airport is an airport in Russia located 2km (01miles) north of Velikiy Ustyug. It is a small civilian airfield with a parking apron and a few buildings.

The airport can accept only small aircraft. There is occasional passenger service to Vologda. The bigger Kotlas Airport is away.

There were plans to reconstruct Veliky Ustyug Airport, making it an international airport and accessible for large aircraft.[1]
