Increased Air Service & Restaurant Service Coming to Canadian Rockies International Airport
December 14, 2023
Thanks to the communities’ continued devotion to flying local from the Canadian Rockies International Airport (YXC), an increase in air service is set to start January 2, 2024, thanks to Air Canada.
Because demand numbers have demonstrated the need for more air service, Air Canada has responded, adding a second daily Vancouver flight using a 76-seat Q400 aircraft doubling Air Canada’s existing YXC capacity with the first flight starting on Tuesday, January 2, 2024. The flight will depart YVR at 8:30am, arriving to YXC at 11:50am, and departing at 12:30pm.
“This flight is timed perfectly for the best connections possible into Air Canada’s global network at YVR,” says Tristen Chernove, Chief Executive Officer of the Canadian Rockies International Airport. “I want to thank Air Canada for providing this additional service to our airport and believe this will be a welcome additional flight option for our residents and inbound guests.”
WestJet’s existing daily schedule of three flights to Calgary and two to Vancouver will remain unchanged through the winter months.
Meantime, YXC is also happy to announce the imminent arrival of a new restaurant to the terminal building. Delightful will be opening a satellite location at the airport, targeting a soft opening date early in the New Year.
