From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Grande Prairie Airport (IATA: YQU, ICAO: CYQU) is located 3 nautical miles (5.6 km) west northwest of Grande Prairie, Alberta, Canada. It is the largest airport in the Peace River Country of northwestern Alberta and northeastern British Columbia, having served 330,009 passengers in 2006[3]. The airport is currently seeing extremely high passenger traffic growth due to the high economic and population growth of the city. The terminal was originally built in 1981, and recently completed its extensive renovations which increased space, and added a restaurant to the second floor. Expansion of the terminal to the south and parking space, originally planned for 2014, is now being rescheduled for as early as 2007.
