Friday, June 7, 2019 0 Uncategorized

Are you planning a visit to the beautiful Rocky Mountains this summer? We can help with that.

Keep reading to learn more about all the ways YYC Calgary International Airport can help you reach the summit of your travel experiences.

 

Pre-board screening reminders:

Before you depart, keep in mind that CATSA regulations may affect what you bring with you to and from the mountains. Note that the following items are commonly confiscated during the summer months:

  • Hiking poles
  • Bear bangers and bear spray
  • Used camping stoves
  • CO2 cartridges

For more detailed information on what you can bring on your travels, visit catsa.gc.ca.

 

Pick up your park pass as soon as you land!

You can purchase your Parks Canada Discovery Passes at any one of our InfoCentres within the airport.

This pass gives you unlimited admission for 12 months to Parks Canada locations from coast to coast.

Our Customer Care Ambassadors at the InfoCentres are also happy to share their insider secrets, food and lodging recommendations and provide brochures. 

To view prices, or the hours of all our InfoCentres, visit this page on our website.

 

Getting to and from the Rockies

YYC offers many options for transportation to the Rocky Mountains.

If you're planning to stay in Banff, we offer many YYC to Banff shuttle services. Or, if you prefer to wander on your own we have several rental car providers.
