  Air port is good, friendly staff, nice bathrooms. Had the worst experience with West Jet ever!

  Flew here a bit ago. The security staff (and can't believe I am saying this) take their job TOO SERIOUSLY! When I was heading through security they were patting down everyone, doing drug swabs on every 2nd person, one guy went through the metal detector, it didn't beep but they still held the line up to use a handheld detector on him for reasons unknown.

  Airport is clean and small. Would like direct flights to Vancouver and Toronto.

  Booked a flight today in GP, It reminded me about the last time I booked with west jet. I had been in the phone with one of your staff members and he had planed out flights for me and I wrote them down. He told me to go to the counter inside the airport and I can book my flights. I got to the counter and showed the lady at the counter my flight numbers and she said those flights don't exist. So I had told her I need a round trip flight, I need to leave today and be back in 7 days. She tells me that there is a flight today for some amount of money I did care about the amount I needed to leave that day and I just got off night shift so I wanted to go to sleep. So when I handed her the money while I'm still holding on to it she grabs the money and I ask her when is my return flight? She say oh that's only one way and pulls the money out of my hand, I mention that I told her I needed a round trip and she say you already payed me with the money still in her hand not in the till not locked away... I was rather up set. One of her coworkers who was watching realizes her mistake and turns around abruptly then leaves. So I had to pay for my return flight separately. Promised myself I would never fly west jet again.

  One of the worst experiences at an aiport. Waiting in the security line up for over an hour... our flight has been boarding for 20 mins and 90% of the people are still in the line up that is so long that its in the lobby.... this is ridiculous. Short staffed. Bad service. No apologies. No explanation to why it's taking so long..

  Lots of parking spots with reasonable for short term and long term parking. Great experience from Westjst airline station. Hope see the expansion in various services in the future.

  I had lotion in my bag that was 105 ml but it was used so there wasn't 105 ml of lotion actually in the bottle, which the bottle was clear so security lady could see that it was 3/4 full. Still she was like "you aren't allowed over 100 ml" and just walked away with it. So that was 20 bucks just gone. When I said I want it back she told me she will place it on my checked baggage (she never did) but then said I had some suspicious items in my bag and pulled apart both of my carry on bags. I'm talking full blown search. Every item was emptied out of both. They began to debate if my hair gel should be allowed onto the plane or not, no clue why. Also my expensive cologne was question if it should make it on the plane. Weird how she carried it and asked the other guards if it should be allowed. To me it seemed like they were shopping. I asked them why they did a bag search and they responded that "the cords to charge your laptop and phone seemed suspicious on the monitor."
