t’s been an active year for the Greater Sudbury Airport. A year ago,
Todd Tripp was brought on board as the new CEO of the Sudbury
Airport Community Development Corporation (SACDC), bringing
with him a wealth of knowledge and expertise in aviation from his
experience working with Air Canada and Toronto’s Pearson Interna-
tional Airport.
“The appeal of working for the Greater Sudbury Airport was to come
back to northern Ontario. I was originally in southern Ontario at Cana-
da’s largest airport, and I wanted to come back and work in a smaller
airport so I could develop air services, develop the community in-
volvement in the airport, and grow the business.”
Grow the business, they have. The Greater Sudbury Airport is one of
Northern Ontario's busiest with a catchment area that includes North
Bay, Sault Ste. Marie, Timmins and down to the edges of the prov-
ince. The airport is currently served by Air Canada, Bearskin Airlines,
Porter Airlines and Sunwing Airlines, and, most recently, WestJet.
