Region of Waterloo International Airport - YKF

Seems silly to have more than one operator on a route to such a small airport anyway. We're not Pearson level just yet, so this is the best way to go.

Also it’s a strategy for going from zero to one airlines flying a route, and the exclusivity is only for two years. I think it’s a good plan. And I say that as someone who doesn’t generally agree with rules and agreements of this kind. The hypothetical airlines in question don’t really get any sort of lock on their customers — they are still competing with service out of Pearson and other airports. Who knows, maybe this will jump-start the airport into a sustainable higher-traffic state.
