Victoria Airport sticks to ambitious expansion plans despite aviation worries
On the surface, Canada`s airline industry should be facing a crisis with fuel prices skyrocketing and people railing at the rising cost of travel.
But the reality, at least in Victoria, is the airport charged with handling aircraft, passengers and cargo has never been busier.
Other than a slight dip following the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the U.S., little has changed the steady increase in use of Victoria International Airport, which had a $30-million renovation and expansion completed in 2006.
