Good news from Billy Bishop Airport this week: it has reduced the Airport Improvement Fee levied on all fliers from $20 to $15 from the start of April. Their fee will now be among the lowest in Canada.

The news comes ahead of the airport introducing significant enhancements, which include an upgraded terminal featuring new and larger lounge areas, increased retail, food and beverage services and a pre-clearance facility in anticipation of successful negotiations to bring U.S. Customs Border Protection staff and facilities to Billy Bishop.
