PRINCE GEORGE — Passenger numbers were down the first quarter of this year at the Prince George Airport.

YXS says they were down 78 per cent though there does seem to be some light at the end of the tunnel.

Central Mountain Air has started an expanded route, Flair Airlines has announced a return for this summer and WesJet recently announced a new route from YXS to the Abbotsford Airport starting in June.
