Changes at the airport over the last several years have enhanced its image.” – Anthony Knight, CEO, Fredericton Chamber of Commerce With skyrocketing fuel prices in the summer and the emer- gence of a possible recession before the year ended, 2008 was not an easy year for the aviation industry. However, the econ- omy in the Fredericton Region remained strong and the 2008 Fredericton International Airport continued to grow, experi- encing its fifth consecutive year of increased passenger traffic YEAR IN REVIEW and seeing a significant rise in aircraft movements. New @ YFC The new brand of the Fredericton International Airport was officially launched in October of 2008. It includes a redesigned logo, “Your Fredericton Connection” slogan, and a new and improved website. It will be incorporated into every- thing that we do. This new brand builds on the relationship we have with the surrounding communities and represents our role as an economic engine connecting people to the Fredericton Region and the province of New Brunswick and connecting Fredericton to the world. New services were added at the Fredericton International Airport this year, including the addition of a taxi agent to help arrange transportation for passengers arriving at the airport. The taxi agent assigns passengers to a taxi and calls for more as needed. In partnership with Air Canada, two self-service kiosks were installed in the Air Terminal Building near the Air Canada counter. These kiosks allow passengers to check-in, change their seat, request an earlier departure, or request an upgrade. Also, a reconfiguration of the parking and traffic areas at the airport was completed. The new layout increases the number of spaces in the short-term and rental car parking lots and allows for a better flow of traffic with designated drop-off, pick-up and taxi zones. 6 2008 Annual Report Air Service and Fredericton International Airport Passenger Traffic Year Passenger Traffic 2008 In 2008, the Fredericton International Airport had a 2007 record-breaking 270,435 passengers pass through its facility.

This study was undertaken following the decision of a broad group of partners in Atlantic Canada to join the OECD/IMHE project “Supporting the Contribution of Higher Education Institutions to Regional Development”. Atlantic Canada was one of the last regions, and the only North American region, to enter into this project. It is also one of the largest groups of partners to participate in this OECD project, with engagement from the federal government; four provincial governments, all with separate responsibility for higher education; 17 publicly funded universities; all colleges in the region; and a range of other partners in economic development. As such, it must be appreciated that this report represents a major undertaking in a very short period of time. A research process was put in place to facilitate the completion of this self-evaluation report. The process was multifaceted and consultative in nature, drawing on current data, direct input from HEIs and the perspectives of a broad array of stakeholders across the region. An extensive effort was undertaken to ensure that input was received from all key stakeholders, through surveys completed by HEIs, one-on-one interviews conducted with government officials and focus groups conducted in each province which included a high level of private sector participation.
