YXS taking precautions in response to COVID-19

PRINCE GEORGE — YXS is taking precautions in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.

The airport says it continues to follow the guidelines set forth by public health officials including the World Health Organization, Public Health Agency Canada and Northern Health.

“The safety of our employees, tenants and travelling public is of utmost importance and we are doing everything we can to stay on top of this,” says President and CEO Gordon Duke. “The janitorial team has implemented their high touch point cleaning program, and the Prince George Airport Authority has posted additional signage and installed numerous hand sanitizing stations in the public and employee areas.”

YXS is also reviewing its pandemic plans and aircraft isolation procedures in response to the possibility of COVID-19 materializing in our region and is also in discussions with its suppliers to ensure critical products are available to ensure the airport is operational.
