IATA code YQV, ICAO code CYQV.

Although the history on the Web is patchy, it appears that Yorkton Municipal Airport was built for the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan, to house Service Flying Training School No. 11. The SFTS operated from April 1941 to December 1944; it was replaced by Elementary Flying Training School No. 23, which operated from January to September 1945.

Trans Canada Air Lines provided passenger service from May 10, 1948; however, there has been no such service for many years.
