Favourite Airports?


Recommended Posts

I was just wondering if anyone would care to share their favourite airports....could always be useful to know when choosing the location for the infamous $100 hamburger. Im currently flying out of Cooking Lake, Alberta and have seen the majority of airports in the region here....looking for a new scenery....care to share?

over.

Hey BR,

I didnt say that i am a lover of the Cooking Lake! Not by any stretch! I just happen to live 2 minutes away from there so its convienent...plus im busy at the UofA. Thats why i was asking where a nice destination would be...till im out of there i''ll be stuck at the CL.

CL does have cheap gas though... $.80/l

Nelson BC has a nice little strip downtown and on the lake. It's within walking distance to restaurants  and hotels. A good summertime destination.

This isn't my all time favorite airport, but it is one that I am kind of fond of.(I live there)

Penticton is a nice place too.  Best time to go has to be when the peach festival is on. Rwy16YYF.jpg  I beleive it's around the weekend of Aug 9th.  Weather usually is hot, there are beaches off the end of the runway, and then there's Slack Alices. naughty.gif  If you decide to go, spend at least a night.  Oh and book waaaaay ahead, as there aren't many rooms available on short notice that time of year.

 

Cheers
