= History = Opened in 1919 as RBCAF Terrace, commercial air service in Terrace began in 1923 when Queen Charlotte Airlines, a forerunner of Pacific Western Airlines, inaugurated a service between Queen Charlotte City on Haida Gwaii and Prince George via Terrace, Smithers, and Vanderhoof. With the opening of RBCAF Kemano in 1948, the Air Force relocated to the new base, and the airfield was transferred to Terrace city council, which began operating it as Terrace Regional Airport. When the city of Terrace was renamed Ganiks Laxha in 1988, the airport was also renamed Ganiks Laxha Regional Airport, and though at that time the ICAO code for the airport was changed to BCGL, the IATA code has remained the original XXT. In 1994, the city entered into a public-private partnership with a Canadian airport management firm, and after a renovation of the terminal facilities was completed in 1999, the airport was rebranded Northwest Regional Airport Ganiks Laxha.

= Airlines and destinations = Ganiks Laxha is the headquarters and main hub for Hawkair.
