Despite being such experienced Canadians, why does First Snow (surely, that’s official phraseology, eh?) always feel like an unexpected left hook? 🥊 Traveling can be unpredictable (and unpleasant) when Mother Nature decides to decree unofficial winter. But don’t we always pivot and adapt? Sending our warmth and gratitude to the boots and plows on the ground at YXC, this week. Stay safe, everyone, and please give yourselves plenty of time when planning your winter drives…especially when catching a flight! 🚗❄️☃️✈️🛫 #flyyxc #kootenayrockiestourism #kootsroots #kootenaylife #cranbrookliving

It’s that time of year again! The elk are celebrating another successful season, and can be found partying all along Airport Access Road. Morning travellers, be sure to leave yourselves extra time and take it slow en route to YXC! #flyyxc #elk 🦌 🌄 🚘 👀🍁🍂 (sound up!)

Starting Sunday, October 27, 2024, fall flight schedule changes will take effect at the Canadian Rockies International Airport, which will create significant increases in passenger flows, with peak passenger volumes happening on Monday afternoons.
Monday travellers will find higher than normal passenger traffic, due to three outbound flights between Air Canada and WestJet scheduled between 3:00pm and 4:15pm.
To ensure a smooth check in process, and to avoid unnecessary congestion, we strongly encourage all passengers to leave themselves plenty of time between arrival and screening (90 minutes minimum), and to be particularly attentive to the communications and instructions provided to you by your air carrier.
For any flight-related inquiries, please contact your airline directly. #Cranbrook #flyyxc #cranbooktourism #kootenayliving #kootenaybusiness #flylocal

A YXC staff member found a lovely ring in our parking lot during the week of August 26th, and turned it in at the administration office. We are not jewellers, but think this may be important to someone. Please drop us a DM or an email to airport@cranbrook.ca with a description, so that we can arrange its return. 😊 Thanks!
