Part of what we do here at the Best Western Pembina Inn & Suites is provide our guests with an airport shuttle. We can pick you up or drop you off, just give us 48-hours notice.
Today was one of those days I got to make a run to the airport to drop off a guest who was staying with us. I always like going to the airport because 1) it gets me out of the office, 2) I get to talk to the guest and get to know their story and 3) I like to see the progress they are making on the new airport terminal and I daydream that it will be easier and more efficient to pick up and drop off guests.
This morning I got to drive through the new part of what I assume is the pick up/drop off area of the new terminal and I have to say I'm a bit disappointed. Unless they are building more than two lanes, the same pandemonium and confusion will take suit.
If you have ever been to the airport in Winnipeg, you know what I'm talking about. There are two lanes one for quick drop offs pick ups (idle and be sure to get yelled at by one of the many parking guards) and the lane for those of us who have to wait for more than two minutes. This seems like a good plan right? It would be if people wouldn't double park, idle where you're not supposed to and a host of many other problems.
My only hope that new airport terminal has something up their sleeves that will surprise us all ( in a good way of course) in terms of picking up /dropping off.
Other than this one small issue I have with the new airport, it looks great. The website james2010.ca has many illustrations of the final product and current pictures of construction. The building is sleek, clean, open and looks much more modern than the existing building.
Cheers,
