Why Hawkair is moving

An open letter to:

Peter Morgan,

Vancouver, BC

Dear Sir:

>/b>I would like to thank you for taking the time to express your views

regarding Hawkair's move to the main terminal. Your passion for Hawkair

rings through clearly in your letter. We also appreciate the many years of

patronage that you and your family have granted to Hawkair.

You are correct, the South Terminal has served Hawkair and our

passengers well over the last decade. The south terminal does have

advantages such as its small size and atmosphere. But on the other hand the

main terminal offers many advantages that are not available at the south

side. Until recently I would not have even suggested that we make the move

over to the main terminal but with the advent of the Canada line sky train

we took another look at the main terminal. Although we did not talk to all

passengers, we have held informal discussions with many passengers, travel

coordinators, and travel agents, who work with Hawkair. In these discussions

the pros and cons of both terminals were weighed but in the end the

consensus was that the advantages offered by the main terminal overcame the

disadvantages.

I would welcome the opportunity to have a discussion with you about

our decision please feel free to call me at your convenience.

Rod Hayward,

General Manager,

Hawkair,

Terrace, BC
