New Calgary airport CEO Chris Dinsdale said rail links between downtown and the airport are common in most major European cities.
Dinsdale’s address came two months after the Alberta government directed $3 million toward an airport-rail connector study. In July, the province stated the study, to conclude next August, would assess passenger rail links beyond the city limits to connect Calgary with Banff by hydrogen-powered trains.Article content
“Essentially what we’ve proposed is that the Calgary Airport-Banff rail, which was originally going to terminate at the airport, continue past the airport and actually connect another four kilometres to the Blue Line,” he said. More than 14 million passengers visited YYC in 2022, more than double 2021’s 6.3 million — and just 3.5 million travellers short of 2019’s record 18 million.
Dinsdale also answered questions about the future of airports in general, adding he expects current practices such as checking in before a flight to be unnecessary within 10-15 years.
