Hi Everyone from CYKA, covered in snow and quite cold! The weather has played havoc with visitors and with the airport surrounded by hills, the cloud has been low for a lot of the days, hence only a few visitors.

I am hoping for a better December when the Americans fly in for the ski-ing towards the end of the month.
UP COMING NEWS
Westjet are starting a new route in February connecting Kamloops with Edmonton using Dash 8 aircraft and the airport manager is in contract talks with other airlines trying to tie in with the holiday destinations south of the Border. There is already a link from Kelowna ( 2.5 hours away by road ) to Los Angeles and San Francisco. I am not sure where he will be looking to gain extra airlines as the runway is not too long here in Kamloops, so it may limit his scope for attracting airlines.
