CALGARY, Alberta

"Every one is nice enough but if possible ask for the name of a good chiropractor. You'll need it. " (unknown)
"I felt pretty safe (I'm female) but I did sleep with my arms around my carry-on, since it had my passport and wallet inside." (?)
"Even worse than the lack of comfortable seating conducive to sleeping was the constant Country Top 40 music that blared over the public address system all night long." (Ben)
"It hands down beats 90% of airports throughout North America, Europe and the rest of the airport sleeping world." (Paul)

What you can look forward to:


WTF is this?

  • best lounges are beyond check-in
  • friendly staff
  • cushioned benches
  • padded seats with armrests
  • clean washrooms
  • possible to move chairs to create beds
  • frequent and loud announcements
  • 7 Tim Hortons (YAY! I recommend the Iced Caps if you can't sleep and need a boost)

"I recently arrived in Calgary on a Saturday night around 9:00. I couldn't go through security at the "B" gates so had to walk a long way to "A" gates to clear security and all the way back on the other side of a glass wall to "B" gates. Ridiculous. Also, there is a nice shopping area in the airport - but everything was closed at 9:00 PM - even the news stand at the departure gates. Couldn't buy a bottle of water until a cleaning person showed me a vending machine (he spoke no English). There were some nice large leather arm chairs. There should be 24- hour vendors of at least water and magazines."
