New home for Harbour Air

It’s a dispute that’s been going on for years and it’s finally come to end.

Harbour Air and the “Vancouver Harbour Flight Centre” have a new deal in place – with the help of a mediator,  to operate at the new Canada Place terminal.

At issue was a lease agreement and perceived safety concerns.

Harbour Air C-E-O Greg McDougall says it’s a relief to have an agreement in place that will see his planes flying out of a new, permanent terminal by year’s end.

“Very relieved because it’s been totally a major focus of the company in all different aspects to try and get a resolution to the very heart of our business which is operating in and out of Coal Harbour.”

The only drawback however is that passengers will see an extra $ 9.50 tacked on to every flight to help pay for the new location.
