    Maybe you’re right, but then people just won’t go, or they’ll go to alternative airports which have now been invested in thanks to the influx of capital from the big four airports.

    To think you’re not already all of those things is naive, I’m sorry to say. There’s already tons of ads around airports. You’re already surveiled. Your info is collected and sold to companies. And, there is already a nicer tier for those willing to pay.

    What this sounds like to me is more of the same, maybe to a higher degree, but we’ll have infrastructure in the end.

      How do people go to alternative airports?

      For example, the closest airport to YVR is Abbotsford. Except it doesn’t service the same routes. So you end up having to drive to Seattle, Calgary or Edmonton to fly to… Seattle, Calgary or Edmonton?

      The other airports listed have similar issues; for the services they provide, they are a regional monopoly.
