The airport, in it's current form, and any reasonable projected future usage does not justify a bus, let alone an LRT...

I think the best Phase 3 is to complete the loop down King from Conestoga to Uptown....there's a huge density of housing and development, plus substantial open space for development, it's pretty short so it shouldn't be that expensive, plus is relatively straight and can use existing right of way (if we are willing to one-way King and Regina--which traffic wise is totally reasonable), maybe even call it Phase 2b.
My phase 3 would incorporate Doon & Cambridge campuses of Conestoga College.  Essentially connect Preston (or Sportsworld) to Blockline station by running tracks all the way down Fountain/Homer Watson.
