BuildinG VAluE, sErVicE, And community<br />

The <strong>Edmonton</strong> area has seen tremendous <strong>growth</strong> in the<br />

past decade, and EIA has been growing right alongside<br />

the community we’re proud to serve. During those 10<br />

years, EIA has evolved from a small regional airport<br />

to a service hub for northwestern Canada. As Canada’s<br />

fastest-growing major airport for three years in a row,<br />

EIA is continuing its $1-billion <strong>expansion</strong> to ensure the<br />

airport can keep pace with <strong>Edmonton</strong> and northwestern<br />

Canada’s economic development.<br />

Expansion <strong>2012</strong> will do more than make EIA bigger; it<br />

will add value to the community and help local business<br />

thrive in the <strong>Edmonton</strong> region. Ours will be an airport<br />

that’s technologically advanced, passenger-friendly,<br />

efficient for airlines and a showcase for the community.<br />

The future airport technologies that have helped EIA<br />

stretch current capacity are being fully deployed in the<br />

new building. Every process and interaction is being<br />

examined with an eye to making the airport as simple<br />

to use as possible; automated systems will make it more<br />

efficient for airlines to process customers and amenities<br />

like moving sidewalks and new shops will please everyone.<br />

EIA is committed to continued development in our<br />

region, and Expansion <strong>2012</strong> will enable future <strong>growth</strong>.
