ABBOTSFORD (NEWS 1130) – More and more people are flying through Abbotsford’s airport these days, and YXX is now marking a record year for passenger volumes.
Just over 840,000 people passed through last year. That’s up about 25 per cent from 2017, which was also a record year.
The only hiccup was in June, when the airport saw a slight (2%) dip in the number of passengers coming through.
The rest of the year showed monthly increases ranging from three to 66 per cent.
The airport recently expanded its terminal building, added two more gates, and brought increased service from the ultra-low-cost airline Swoop to destinations like Vegas and Mexico.
