The meaningful alternates are Thompson Airport, Tadoule Lake Airport, Brochet Airport, which is why the backup plan matters more than the terminal amenities. Scheduled service is carried by Perimeter Aviation, so the first bank of the day is the one to watch.

  "terminal_info": "Lac Brochet Airport is a Government of Manitoba airport for the fly-in Sayisi Dene community of Lac Brochet in far northwestern Manitoba. Current SkyVector data for `CZWH` shows a certified aerodrome at about `1,211 ft` elevation with prior notice required, a single crushed-rock runway `03/21` measuring roughly `3,514 x 100 ft`, PAPI on both ends, and a terminal building with limited operating hours on weekdays plus food and medical aid available within `5 NM`.\n\nThat operational profile is exactly what makes the airport distinctive. It is not a generic northern strip but a maintained provincial community airport with a formal operator, runway-condition reporting, apron limits in winter, and a schedule shaped by medevac priority and northern logistics rather than by ordinary convenience travel.\n\nFor terminal context, XLB is best understood as a fly-in community lifeline. The airport exists to connect Lac Brochet with the rest of northern Manitoba and to support freight, passenger, and medical movements in a place where roads do not provide year-round access.",
