WINNIPEG — Passenger levels and revenue soared during the second quarter at James Richardson International Airport.

Numbers released by the Winnipeg Airports Authority on Tuesday show a 2.1 percent increase to passenger travel during April, May and June of this year compared to the same period in 2017. That accounts for 1,073,512 passengers who made their way through the airport terminal.

Consolidated revenue was $32.6 million for the second quarter, compared to $31.1 million for the same period in 2017.

The WAA broke ground on a new Ground Services Equipment (GSE) Building in June and saw the opening of Lolë, a Canadian-owned women’s sports apparel outlet, in the terminal in May.
