EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
Since
September
2014,
the
Nanaimo
Airport
Commission
operates
the
Nanaimo-‐
Vancouver
Island
Regional
Airport
(YCD)
under
the
ownership
of
the
City
of
Nanaimo.
The
airport
is
located
in
the
District
of
Cassidy,
South
of
Nanaimo
City,
in
the
central
region
of
Vancouver
Island,
British
Columbia,
Canada.
The
catchment
area
for
YCD
reaches
the
northern
communities
of
Port
Hardy,
and
eastwards
towards
Tofino.
The
airport
has
five
airlines
offering
scheduled
and
chartered
air
services
that
operate
within
Canada
only.
In
the
near
future,
YCD
hopes
to
add
seasonal
international
sun
destinations
from
the
airport.
Nanaimo-‐
Vancouver
Island
Regional
also
provides
non-‐aeronautical
services
like
land
leases
for
aircraft
maintenance
facilities,
aircraft
fuelling
services,
car
rentals
and
others.
The
mission
for
the
airport
commission
is
to
support
the
economic
development
of
Nanaimo
and
surrounding
regions
by
providing
safe,
efficient
and
cost
effective
air
services
to
the
travelling
public.
We
commit
ourselves
to
safety,
sustainability,
great
community
relations
and
excellent
customer
service.
The
airport
aims
to
be
the
regional
gateway
for
the
Vancouver
Island
region.
YCD
hopes
to
exceed
expectations
and
go
an
extra
step
in
everything
that
we
do.

The
main
threats
that
the
airport
faces
are
the
competitions
with
Victoria
Airport
(YYJ),
BC
ferries
and
the
long
haul
bus
services
from
Nanaimo.
The
close
proximity
of
Victoria
airport,
and
the
cost
advantages
of
BC
ferries
and
bus
companies
take
away
potential
air
travellers
that
are
to
use
the
airport.
YCD
aims
to
counter
these
threats
by
offering
competitive
fees
to
airlines,
good
public
transportation
connectivity
throughout
the
island
and
lower
parking
rates
that
will
all
attract
passengers
to
use
YCD’s
air
services.

The
airport’s
weaknesses
include
the
terminal’s
capacity
constraints
and
operational
impacts
as
a
result
of
Reduced
Visibility
Operations
(RVOP)
equipment
short
comings.
As
a
result
the
airport
has
asked
CATSA
to
upgrade
its
passenger
screening
methods
to
improve
the
terminal’s
capacity.
Also,
the
airport
has
acquired
funding
and
approval
to
equip
Rwy
34
with
an
ILS
CAT
I
to
accommodate
97.5%
of
all
the
RVOP
flights.
YCD’s
strengths
include
its
strategic
location
that
captures
a
majority
of
Vancouver
Islands
population.
Competitive
fees
and
charges
make
YCD
an
airport
to
consider
when
choosing
between
the
two
major
airports
in
Vancouver
Island.
The
location
also
benefits
Nanaimo
based
maintenance
facility,
Premier
Aviation.
On
the
other
hand,
the
airport
sees
growth
as
connectivity
to
various
regions
of
the
Vancouver
Island
is
improved
and
the
additional
destinations
and
increase
of
frequencies
that
stimulates
passenger
traffic
growth.
This
is
achieved
by
offering
frequent
and
quick
bus
services
to
areas
across
the
island,
added
destinations
to
cities
like
Toronto
and
Kelowna,
plus
added
daily
flights
to
Vancouver
and
Calgary.
Figure

Main
Apron
(durwest.com)
The
airport
is
a
non-‐
for
profit
organization,
and
it
makes
profit
through
landing
fees,
terminal
fees,
parking
fees,
land
leases
and
others.
In
2014,
the
airport
has
been
financially
stable
and
had
a
income
profit
of
$947,275.
With
additional
plans
to
expand
and
improve
the
operations,
the
airport
will
continue
to
seek
additional
revenue
methods
in
order
to
support
the
continuous
growth
of
Nanaimo-‐
Vancouver
Island
Regional
Airport.

Sustainable
The
Nanaimo
Airport
Commission
strives
to
be
sustainable
both
in
terms
of
business,
as
well
as
the
environment.
The
YCD
Airport
team
is
continuously
seeking
more
revenue
methods
such
as
having
additional
flights,
more
airport
property
lessors
and
more
non-‐
aeronautical
sources
of
income.
This
is
to
continuously
support
the
growth
of
the
airport,
and
to
significantly
contribute
to
the
economies
of
the
region.
The
airport
is
also
committed
to
protecting
the

employees
including
those
from
the
airport
authority,
air
carriers,
NavCanda,
Canadian

Authority
(CATSA)
and
other
tenants.
YCD
has
a
strict
policy
in
having
safety
as
the
first
priority
above
everything
else.
All
new
employees
that
are
to
work
in
the
airport
are
given
a
YCD
Airport
Authority
safety
orientation
on
top
of
tenants
specific
safety
orientations
within
a
week
of
their
hiring.
In
2010,
YCD
Airport
implemented
an
updated
Safety
Management
System
(SMS)
at
the
airport
after
concerns
of
increasing
work
related
injuries.
The
airport
authority
also
introduced
tougher
inspections
and
audit
programs
ever
since
in
order
to
lessen
the
number
of
injuries.
Based
on
the
data
gathered
and
shown
on
Figure
5,
the
new
SMS
and
inspection
programs
have
helped
decrease
the
number
of
injuries
by
more
than
two-‐thirds
in
the
past
5
years.

Summary
of
facilities
at
YCD
On
the
groundside
properties,
the
airport
needs
additional
long
term
parking
spaces
to
meet
the
increasing
passenger
traffic
using
the
airport.
This
is
also
in
preparation
to
the
airport
serving
sun
destinations
which
will
result
to
an
increase
use
of
the
long
term
parking
lot.
There
are
also
plans
to
update
the
outdated
runway
and
taxiway
lights
and
upgrade
them
to
LEDs.
Not
only
will
they
improve
reliability,
it
will
also
contribute
to
more
energy
savings
in
the
long
run.
More
floodlighting
is
also
needed
on
the
apron
to
meet
the
additional
demands
for
after
daylight
operational
hours
of
the
airport.
This
is
added
to
the
previously
mentioned
plans
for
installing
CAT
I
ILS
on
Runway
34
to
increase
operational
reliability
during
RVOPs.

CUSTOMERS
Nanaimo-‐
Vancouver

Regional
Airport
values
its
customers.
The
airport
conducts
a
customer
satisfaction
survey
bi-‐
annually:
during
the
summer
and
winter
season.
The
survey
focuses
on
four
areas:
friendliness
of
staff,
cleanliness
of
the
air
terminal
building,
comfort
of
the
terminal
building
and
the
convenience
of
getting
to

External
Factors
GEOGRAPHICAL
LOCATION
AND
CLIMATE
YCD
Airport
is
located
approximately
8km
east
of
the
Straight
of
Georgia
and
just
west
of
a
mountainous
region.
During
winter,
the
months
of
December
to
January
bring
rain,
fog
and
occasional
snowfall
to
the
YCD
Airport.
These
conditions
greatly
affect
the
visibility
at
the
airport
and
can
lead
to
cancelled
or
diverted
flights.
Flight
delays
are
more
common
in
the
winter
months
than
during
the
summer
when
there
is
longer
daylight,
and
warmer
temperatures.
Figure
13
shows
the
number
of
cancelled
flights
at
YCD
Airport
since
2010.
The
increase
in
trend
of
cancelled
flights
is
proportional
to
the
increase
of
annual
traffic
movements
at
the
airport.
YCD
Airport
being
20min
flight
time
away
from
Vancouver
International
Airport
(YVR)
is
an
advantage
for
Premier
Aviation,
a
Maintenance
Repair
Overhaul
(MRO)
facility
that
is
based
in
YCD.
Premier
Aviation
has
seen
growth
in

mainly
from

ECONOMIC
In
2015,
74.6%
of
the
population
is
employed
in
the
Nanaimo
region
(Figure

This
is
an
increase
of
2.4%
from
2014.
Unemployment
grew
by
0.2
percentage
points
from
2014,
as
more

compared
to

Nanaimo
ranked
second
best
among

growth.
The

MARKET
YCD
travelers
usually
come
from
the
Central
and
Northern
Areas
of
Vancouver
Island.
The
total
population
for
YCD’s
catchment
area
is
253,000
(Figure
18).
This
includes
over
150,000
population
bases
that
are
the
Northern
Areas
of
Nanaimo,
which
does
not
have
an
airport
to
use.
Residents
of
the
Regional
District
of
Nanaimo
tend
to
travel
south
to
Victoria
to
catch
a
domestic
flight,
or
a
direct
flight
to
the
US
or
other
sun
destinations,
rather
than
using
YCD
to
connect
through
YVR
or
YYC.
In
a
recent
study,
there
is
an
estimated
80,000
passengers
that
“leak”
to
Victoria
International
Airport
every
year
(Intervistas,
2015).
Connecting
YCD
with
some
US
or
Sun
destinations
served
by
YYJ
will
regain
these
lost
passengers.
The
Nanaimo
Airport
Commission
is
working

hard
to

GLOBAL
A
slow
growth
of
the
Canadian
GDP
and
the
slow
down
of
the
oil
industry
growth
in
Alberta
has
impacted
YCD
by
having
lower
growth

than
forecasted
on
the

route.
Air
Canada
Jazz
had
to
reduce

Westjet
is
content
with
its
twice
daily
service
to

and
the
introduction

SUMMARY
OF
BUSINESS
ANALYSIS
Nanaimo-‐
Vancouver
Island
Regional
Airport
has
been
fortunate
to
have
continuous
record
breaking
growth
in
the
recent
years.
Low
fares
and
good
flight
schedules
were
able
to
stimulate
passenger
growth
especially
in
new
routes
served
by
airlines.
YCD’s
largest
land
lessor,
Premier
Aviation
MRO,
has
also
experienced
positive
growth
in
the
recent
years.
Winning
Jazz
Aviation’s
MRO
for
Dash
8s
and
CRJs
as
well
as
multiple
contracts
for
Corporate
Jet
companies
based
in
Vancouver
and
Victoria.
The
forecast
for
YCD
in
the
coming
years
is
positive.
Proper
planning
in
future
expansions
and
continuous
well
maintained
partnership
with
tenants
will
drive
YCD

STRENGTHS
Strategic
Location
YCD
is
located
1.5hours
drive
north
of
Victoria.
The
airport
is
strategically
located
that
it
captures
the
central
and
northern
population
of
the
Vancouver
Island.
The
total
catchment
area
for
YCD
is
253,000
people,
with
Campbell
river
only
a
1.5
hour
drive
north.
The
airport
offers
many
different
modes
of
transportation
for
passengers
in
these
communities,
including
an
express
bus
service
and
a
long
term
parking
which
rates
are
favorable
to
lure
passengers
to
travel
by
land
before
catching
a
flight
from
YCD.
YCD
Airport
being
20min
flight
time
away
from
YVR
is
also
an
advantage
for
Premier
Aviation,
an
MRO
facility
that
is
based
in
YCD.
Premier
Aviation
has
seen
growth
in
contract
servicing
Dash
8s
and
CRJs
and
corporate
jets
from
the
Lower
Mainland
and
Victoria
in
the
recent
years.
Smaller
Scale
of
Operations
YCD
airport
has
a
smaller
scale
of
operations
than
YYJ
airport
which
handles
more
flights.
This
is
a
favorable
characteristic
of
the
airport
as
fast
turnarounds,
flexible
gate
schedules,
flexible
arrival
and
departure
slots
benefits
the
carriers
who
use
YCD.
This
also
means
less
complexity
in
passenger
processing
which
leads
to
passengers
preferring
the
less
hassle
and
bustle
of
bigger
airports.
In
the
2015
passenger
surveys,
79%
of
the
passengers
say
that
they
would
like
to
travel
through
YCD
again.
Customer
Oriented
YCD
prides
itself
as
one
of
the
top
20
airports
of
its
category
in
North
America
in
terms
of
KPI
customer
service
scores.
In
YCD,
customer
service
comes
second
after
safety
and
we
look
after
the
travelling
public
concerns
the
moment
they
enter
the
terminal
to
the
last
step
they
take
to
board
their
flight.
There
are
50
full
time
volunteer
airport
ambassadors
at
the
YCD,
assisting
passengers
in
any
way
they
can.
The
airport
authority
also
engages
the
public
in
multiple
events
year
round,
and
responds
to
emails
and
social
media
comments
promptly

Development
of
Airport
Land
Nanaimo
Airport
has
lots
of
space
for
development
for
any
company
willing
to
lease
land.
There
are
approximately
200
hectares
available
on
the
North
and
South
side
of
the
air
terminal
building,
Back
in
2008,
Premier
Aviation
MRO
shifted
its
main
Maintenance,
Repair
and
Overhaul
Services
from
Vancouver
(YVR)
to
Nanaimo.
Premier
Aviation
specializes
in
MROs
for
Air
Canada
Jazz’s
CRJs
and
Dash
8s
as
well
as
other
contract
services.
Recently,
Premier
Aviation
was
awarded
a
contract
in
retrofitting
and
extending
the
life
spans
of
Jazz’s
aging
Dash
8
fleet.
Currently
Premier
Aviation
has
two
hangars
and
a
dedicated
apron
to
perform
their
maintenance
contracts.
WEAKNESSES
Limited
Growth
as
International
Route
Expansion
is
Restricted
YCD
is
an
airport
that
has
been
ruled
out
by
Transport
Canada
(TC)
and
CBSA
to
begin
any
scheduled
and
chartered
international
flights.
As
a
result,
only
YYJ
offers
seasonal
sun
and
US
routes
for
the
whole
750,000
residents
of
Vancouver
Island.
Continuous
proposals
will
be
made
by
the
City
Council
and
the
Nanaimo
Airport
Commission
for
TC
and
CBSA
to
take
into
consideration
the
possibility
of
allowing
international
flights
from
YCD.
When
approved,
the
construction
of
the
CBSA
facility
will
be
an
extension
of
the
current
air
terminal
building,
and
can
be
completed
in
1.5
years.
Slow
passenger
processing
times
during
certain
peak
hours
During
peak
hours,
specifically
the
morning
departure
rush,
the
passenger
pre-‐board
screening
area
often
has
an
average
of
10-‐15min
wait
times.
This
is
due
to
two
Dash
8s
bound
for
YVR
and
an
A320
bound
for
YYZ
departing
only
minutes
after
one
another
on
some
days
of
the
week.
As
a
result
up
to
a
total
of
350
passengers
may
need
to
be
processed
by
three
security
lines
in
the
given
time
period.
CATSA
has
been
aware
of
this
shortcoming,
and
additional
security
lines,
upgraded
equipment,
and
more
staffing
are
slowly
being
introduced
at
YCD
beginning
the
winter
of
2016.

Operational
Delays
During
Winter
due
to
a
Single
Runway
ILS
At
YCD,
only
runway
16
is
equipped
with
a
CAT
I
ILS.
In
2014
there
were
a
total
of
26
days
of
Reduced
Visibility
Operations
(RVOPs)
at
Nanaimo
Airport.
Of
those
26
days,
86%
of
the
flights
were
accommodated
by
the
existing
Runway
16
ILS.
12%
of
the
flights
were
either
cancelled
or
delayed
as
runway
34
does
not
have
an
ILS.
If
runway
34
has
the
CAT
I
equipment,
the
airport
would
have
been
able
to
handle
97.5%
of
all
the
flights
in
RVOP,
only
2.5%
would
have
been
unable
as
it
falls
under
CAT
II
RVOP
conditions.
In
preparation
of
having
seasonal
sun
destination
routes
(pending
approval),
YCD
is
expected
to
handle
more
A320s
and
737s
that
would
benefit
greatly
in
having
both
Runway
16
and
34
equipped
with
ILS.
OPPURTUNITIES
More
Destinations
and
more
Frequencies
With
the
introduction
of
Air
Canada’s
flights
to
YYZ
and
YUL
via
YYC,
Nanaimo
Airport
has
slowly
and
steadily
grown
its
number
of
local
destination
served.
YCD
sees
the
possibility
of
adding
more
flights
to
the
YYZ
from
twice
weekly
up
to
four
times
weekly,
adding
more
frequencies
to
YYC
and
YEG.
The
maturity
of
startup
airline
BC
Island
Express
poses
route
that
serve
the
interior
BC
from
its
base
at
YCD
Airport.
More
Developers
to
Use
Airport
Land
The
airport
has
been
seeking
developers
to
lease
the
airport
land
that
is
currently
unused.
There
are
on
going
negotiations
on
Premier
Aviation
wanting
to
expand
their
maintenance
facilities,
and
a
group
has
submitted
a
proposal
to
develop
the
land
area
on
groundside
to
have
some
shops
and
a
possible
Four
Points
hotel.

THREATS
Competition
from
BC
Ferries
and
Victoria
Airport
Victoria
Airport
(YYJ)
is
the
number
one
competitor
for
YCD
Airport.
Victoria
Airport
is
just
1.5
hours
drive
south
from
Nanaimo
and
an
estimated
80,000
passengers
“leak”
to
Victoria
International.
YYJ
also
serves
YVR,
YYC
and
YEG;
the
top
three
destinations
for
Nanaimo
Airport.
The
second
major
competitor
is
BC
ferries,
with
an
estimated
35,000
potential
travelers
leaking
through
to
take
the
2
hour
ferry
to
Vancouver
to
catch
a
flight.
Slow
Economic
Growth
for
Canada
The
slow
economic
growth
for
Canada
has
led
to
the
Canadian
dollar
being
significantly
weaker
than
the
US’.
This
led
to
prices
and
expenses
higher
compared
to
the
past,
leaving
an
individual
or
families’
disposable
to
be
less
than
of
previous
years.
This
also
led
to
some
carriers
being
hesitant
to
add
frequencies
as
added
growth
may
not
be
stimulated
as
high
as
predicted.
Unstable
Oil
Prices
Oil
prices
have
always
impacted
an
airline’s
operations.
As
of
2015,
the
oil
prices
are
lower
than
of
previous
years
making
airlines
more
willing
to
explore
routes.
But
as
fuel
prices
go
up,
airfares
are
directly
affected.
This
might
result
to
less
passengers
travelling
by
air
through
YCD,
and
may
result
to
Nanaimo
loosing
valuable
route
frequencies.
