Well… we knew it couldn’t last. 🤷♀️
Those glorious bluebird days were a sweet little farewell to our unseasonably warm, snowless January and February.
And now? Winter has officially clocked in across the Kootenays. ❄️
Love it or loathe it, she’s here — bringing snow-covered peaks (skier’s, delight!), slick highways, and that familiar mountain chill.
A friendly reminder to travel safe out there. Slow down, leave extra space, and if you’re flying out of YXC, please give yourself plenty of time to get here. Winter roads can be unpredictable, but your plans don’t have to be.
Drive safe, fly safe — and welcome back, winter. #flyyxc #visitcranbrook #myyxc #kootenaywinter 📸 @celticelf5![Four legends. One milestone. Zero planning. 😎🎉 Your YXC Ops/Office crew really said, “Let’s age...]()
Four legends. One milestone. Zero planning. 😎🎉
Your YXC Ops/Office crew really said, “Let’s age like fine wine… together.” 🍷
By absolutely NO intent whatsoever, this powerhouse team is all rocking the big 5-0 at the same time!
And if that wasn’t wild enough — three of us were born within FIVE days of each other…in the same year. Basically triplets, just with better HR documentation. 😂 Just a little Friday fun! Have a fantastic long weekend, everyone! #fifty #yxcteam #myyxc![Sunrises like this are just part of the morning routine at YXC 🌅 And yes… the lucky folks flying...]()
Sunrises like this are just part of the morning routine at YXC 🌅
And yes… the lucky folks flying Pacific Coastal Airlines to Kelowna at 09:00 from Cranbrook get a front-row seat.
Huge thanks to our photographers—always up at the crack of dawn, phones in hand, ready to catch these golden moments before most of us have hit snooze ☕📸
Worth the early wake-up? Every single time. #flyyxc #pacificcoastal #kootrocks #visitcranbrook #kootenayrockies![Finally—blue skies above and sunshine on the runway ☀️✈️ Watching planes lift off into clear air...]()
Finally—blue skies above and sunshine on the runway ☀️✈️
Watching planes lift off into clear air after weeks of inversions just feels right.
Hello sunshine… we missed you. #flyyxc #visitcranbrook #hellosunshine #kootrocks #aircanada![Well, this January has been full of surprises ☀️. An unexpected stretch of warm weather, and we’re...]()
Well, this January has been full of surprises ☀️.
An unexpected stretch of warm weather, and we’re not mad about it one bit.
If January must be a hundred days long, we’ll gladly take a few more like these.

Freezing conditions are anticipated overnight tonight across the East Kootenay region, which may impact road conditions for those driving to YXC.
If you’re travelling:
❄️ Plan ahead and allow extra time
❄️ Expect icy or slick roads, especially early morning
❄️ Ensure your vehicle is winter-ready
Arriving early (we recommend a minimum 1.5 hours prior to your flight) can make all the difference in your peace of mind. Travel safe, drive smart, and we’ll see you soon. ✈️![YXC had a couple of very special visitors, tonight! We hear there was a lucky little traveller...]()
YXC had a couple of very special visitors, tonight! We hear there was a lucky little traveller arriving who may know them, personally! The holiday spirit is alive and well, and we would like to extend our thanks to Father Christmas and his beautiful bride for making such a special appearance! We hope they are okay with allowing our flyyxc friends and family a sneak peek!#christmasatyxc #happyholidays #visitcranbrook 🧑🎄 🤶 🎄 ![Tonight’s Paul Brandt & Terri Clark concert at the Key City Theatre was nothing short of incredible...]()
Tonight’s Paul Brandt & Terri Clark concert at the Key City Theatre was nothing short of incredible — and our team was honoured to experience a moment we won’t soon forget.
We had the privilege of meeting Paul Brandt backstage and chatting with him about his tireless work spearheading Not In My City, raising awareness and taking action against human trafficking. His sincerity, gratitude, and passion for this cause come directly from his heart.
Thank you, Paul, for the unforgettable music and for the meaningful conversation. Your leadership and commitment to protecting vulnerable people inspire us, and we’re proud to help amplify the message.
But also, how cool is it to have a couple of country legends for our virtual next door neighbours?!
Here’s to spreading the word and supporting the important work of Not In My City. Thanks @imalbertabound and @terriclarkmusic for an amazing evening of music and inspiration! 💛✨ #nimcally #visitcranbrook #keycitytheatre
