Toronto Pearson TodayUS Airways moves operations to Terminal 1Date of Release: 2008-03-26
If you are scheduled to travel on US Airways or are coming to Toronto Pearson Airport to pick up a US Airways passenger on or after March 29, 2008, please be advised that as of that date, the airline will be relocating to Terminal 1.
US Airways will move all its operations from Terminal 3 to Terminal 1 to join its Star Alliance partners. Star Alliance is the largest airline network in the world, offering 17,000 daily flights and serving more than 900 destinations in 160 countries. With their new home in Terminal 1, US Airways passengers will benefit from reduced transfer times when connecting between flights operated by Star Alliance partners, as well as easy access to the numerous other airlines operating out of Terminal 1. “This relocation will not affect the operation of any flights into or out of Toronto Pearson and we expect it to be a day of normal operations,” says Andrea Didone, GTAA General Manager, Terminal Operations. “Additional US Airways and GTAA personnel will be in place to ensure a seamless move.” The primary check-in counters for US Airways will be on the Departures Level at Aisle H, next to the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol entry point. Flight information display screens located throughout the Departures Level will provide passengers with exact check-in counter locations. US Airways is the fifth largest domestic airline in the United States, employing more than 36,000 aviation professionals worldwide. US Airways, US Airways Shuttle and US Airways Express operate approximately 3,700 flights per day and serve more than 230 communities in the US, Canada, Europe, the Caribbean and Latin America. Upcoming Changes In addition to the relocation of US Airways, Toronto Pearson is preparing for other changes in the near future. On April 29, 2008, Air India will be relocating from Terminal 3 to Terminal 1. On May 2, 2008, the airport community will welcome the arrival of Icelandair's inaugural flight from Reykjavik, offering Toronto Pearson passengers a new destination.
