LEAVING A LASTING IMPRESSION<br />

I wanted to share with you<br />

what we consider to be exceptional<br />

customer service during a recent<br />

trip that started at <strong>Toronto</strong> <strong>Pearson</strong><br />

<strong>Airport</strong>.<br />

We arrived at the self-parking<br />

lot on Viscount at about 4:00 a.m.<br />

on a Sunday morning. It was the<br />

first time we used this lot so we<br />

were not familiar with the layout.<br />

We approached an area where<br />

other people were with the hopes<br />

of going the right way. A very<br />

friendly young woman noticed<br />

us and quickly asked if we needed<br />

some direction. She proceeded to<br />

guide us to the train as she was<br />

going in the same direction. We<br />

chatted on the way about how she<br />

empathizes with people who are in<br />

an unfamiliar environment. She had<br />

WELCOMING COMMUNITY<br />

I would like to personally say<br />

a huge thank you to the wonderful<br />

people who work for GENCO<br />

(<strong>Toronto</strong> <strong>Pearson</strong>’s logistics centre).<br />

They have helped us in<br />

numerous ways over the past few<br />

weeks. They have gone above<br />

and beyond the call of duty and<br />

recently been lost in downtown<br />

<strong>Toronto</strong> and knew how we felt.<br />

Getting off the train she<br />

watched us from a little distance<br />

and made sure we made it to our<br />

check-in counter. She even pointed<br />

out that on our return we needed to<br />

make sure to take the train to the<br />

parking lot as the first parking lot<br />

we would encounter would not be<br />

the right one.<br />

What a wonderful person to<br />

meet at that time of morning – or<br />

at any time for that matter. Her<br />

name was Rainia and she works in<br />

the security screening area. I hope<br />

you are able to recognize her for her<br />

great service, positive attitude and<br />

as an asset to the organization. She<br />

got our vacation off to a great start.<br />

We had a similar experience on<br />

have been extremely friendly<br />

and supportive while doing it.<br />

Specifically John and Charles,<br />

though there is another man that<br />

I see regularly whose name I have<br />

not yet received, who is equally as<br />

amazing.<br />

As a new addition to the airport,<br />

Customer Service, For You.<br />

our return a week later at around<br />

5:45 p.m. We made our way back<br />

to the train location and were<br />

waiting for it when a young man<br />

approached us and indicated that<br />

the train across the hall would be<br />

arriving sooner than the one we<br />

were waiting for. He had already<br />

mentioned this to other travellers<br />

doing the same thing. It was such a<br />

small gesture, but one that left us<br />

with a lasting impression.<br />

The customer focus, care and<br />

attention we received from these<br />

two employees was just amazing.<br />

They were both on their own time<br />

yet took the initiative to make a<br />

difference.<br />

Thought it was important to<br />

share our great experience. Many<br />

thanks.<br />

I am glad to be part of such a warm<br />

community here at the airport.<br />

Thank you.<br />

RELIABLE SERVICE<br />

I travelled via <strong>Toronto</strong> <strong>Pearson</strong><br />

on my way home to New Brunswick,<br />

and wanted to say a few words<br />

about the Limo Services I received<br />

over the last few years. I travel to<br />

<strong>Toronto</strong> several times a year from<br />

my hometown of Fredericton,<br />

NB, for cancer treatments at the<br />

Princess Margaret Hospital. I have<br />

had nothing but wonderful service<br />

from one certain limo driver who<br />

www.<strong>Toronto</strong><strong>Pearson</strong>.com<br />

has made my not so pleasant times<br />

there better. His name is Ray of<br />

Aeroport Limosine service. I have<br />

used his services several times over<br />

the years, and I think he should<br />

be recognized for his excellence in<br />

customer service. He is always on<br />

time and always has a smile on his<br />

face. Over the years, my treatment<br />

can be exhausting, and I’m not<br />

feeling up to par when I make my<br />

way to the airport, but Ray will lift<br />

my spirits up with his wonderful<br />

thoughtfulness and is always<br />

concerned for my well-being. I just<br />

wanted to thank you for allowing<br />

Ray to be part of <strong>Toronto</strong> <strong>Pearson</strong><br />

as it makes me want to book out<br />

of the airport there because I know<br />

I will be receiving great service on<br />

the way to and from the airport.<br />

Thank you very much.<br />
