Regina Airport eyes on-site hotel; continues talks for more U.S. flights
Despite an economy that some consider grounded, the CEO of the Regina Airport seems to be optimistic things will take off in the future.
Speaking at the airport’s annual general meeting, Dick Graham outlined how the Regina Airport Authority is eyeing a new hotel to be built at the site.
“There is a great need for that kind of service. We’re well positioned, but we’re not going to do it wrong,” he said.
Graham suggested the interest is already there from companies ready to build, saying that they’re almost ahead of the airport in that respect. If a new hotel does go up, he said the intent is to have it connect directly to the air terminal instead of having a shuttle.
