    Flying Together: the Southern Ontario Airport Network May 2017

    Flying Together: The Southern Ontario Airport Network May 2017 FLYING TOGETHER: THE SOUTHERN ONTARIO AIRPORT NETWORK 1 1 INTRODUCTION Southern Ontario is set to experience significant growth over the next three decades and is one of the fastest growing regions in North America. Not surprisingly, demand for air travel across the region will follow suit, rising to approximately 110 million passengers over the same timeframe. This growth presents significant opportunities for the region, local communities and their airports. As growth comes to Southern Ontario it is critical that we are ready for it. By working together, our region’s airports will be better placed to support local economic development, and in doing so increase the competitiveness of the region, the province and the country. Successful cities and regions around the world have reaped the benefits of a network approach to supporting air service needs, and by better using the available airport infrastructure in Southern Ontario, our region can benefit as well. This approach will ensure that Southern Ontario is well placed to keep the jobs and economic benefits of growth in air service demand in the region. 2 FLYING TOGETHER: THE SOUTHERN ONTARIO AIRPORT NETWORK 2 UNPRECEDENTED AIR TRAVEL DEMAND IS COMING TO SOUTHERN ONTARIO As the most densely populated and economically productive region in Canada, Southern Ontario is an engine of the Canadian economy. The region is Canada’s export powerhouse, accounting for 37 per cent of the Canadian economy overall, 39 per cent of the goods exports and 48 per cent of the services exports. 88 per cent of Southern Ontario’s The region is also home to several Fortune population lives in the metropolitan areas 500 companies, 28 universities and colleges, of the Greater Toronto Area, Hamilton, and an innovation corridor that features the second-largest concentration of tech Kingston, Kitchener-Waterloo, London, companies in North America.

Today, the Greater Sudbury Airport serves to function as more than the usual community aerodrome. It’s more than families, entrepreneurs, voyageurs and snow birds – rather, we’re seeing passion, ideas and investment into our community. Our citizens and the guests of our community have relied on our operations. We’re proud to serve as Northern Ontario’s preferred gateway airport. MAKING THE CONNECTION 3 Message from the Chair of the Board Typically, outgoing chairs tend to take a look back at their tenure and highlight some of the more attention grabbing developments and successes the organization has had. In keeping with the dynamic corporate culture at the Greater Sudbury Airport, this message focuses more on where we want to be and how we will get there. What has been abundantly clear during my tenure is that our success thus far, and ability to adapt to change for the future has been and will be driven by our people. Our directors, our executive team, our dedicated staff, our members, and our municipal partners all work tirelessly and collaboratively to provide our travellers with world-class services and facilities; driving economic development locally and reinforcing our place as “Northern Ontario’s Preferred Gateway”.
