Website
Passengers love Ottawa-Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. The airport was named the second best airport for customer satisfaction in the world among airports that serve up to five million passengers. It's also been named the second best airport in North America. Perhaps this is not surprising given the warm, friendly feel of the capital city, an excellent destination for those wanting to experience British charm without traveling overseas.
Terminal renovations are ongoing and hoped to be finished in 2008. When the new terminal is completed, the older terminal will be torn down and then the runways will be improved. Ottawa International Airport serves destinations as far away as Paris, London, or Cuba and as close as Montreal, Iqaluit, or North Bay. With over thirty destinations, passengers can often reach their dream destination with ease. In 2006, passenger counts neared four million people making it one of the busiest years in history. With renovations nearing completion, feelings are strong that the airport will continue to see incredible growth.
Located six miles south of downtown Ottawa, the airport is easy to reach by car or public bus. Allow around half an hour to reach the airport in heavy traffic. In summer of 2006, Ottawa International Airport closed all smoking lounges due to new laws. Smokers will need to plan accordingly because smoking is not allowed on the airport grounds.
