Very exciting! Maybe in 4 or 5 years I'll be up in the right seat of one ? Now this question has been on my mind for a little while. Will anything in YYC concourse D need to be changed in order to handle the Q operations? I don't know much about Westjet's operations there, but whenever I stop by to watch the traffic there it seems D is pretty busy with a steady stream between Westjet, British Airways, Thomas Cook, Air North, etc. . Is there currently enough gates, security facilities, and check in counters to keep up with the potential new traffic being introduced with the Q's? While I'm sure the opening of the International facility in 2015 will get rid of a lot of transborder and international traffic freeing up space for domestic, theres still the 2 years between the Q3 2013 service start to the terminal opening in 2015. Will there be space to cope for that time span, or will other measures have to be introduced, maybe using the stands on the edge of the ramp as Q gates and bussing passengers out? And also, where is maintenance being done on the Q's, YYC? Just curious, might seem like a silly question but I think you guys would have a better idea than I do. |
