If you are getting to the airport after 8pm on a Saturday, there is only one place to get a bite! At Tim's.

Remember, your laptop goes in its own bin when you go through security
If your vehicle's been sitting in the long term lot getting dusty, be sure to stop in at Bubbles on Springfield for a great hand wash and friendly service!
Rhonda ScharfNovember 9, 2012When going through security - if you get the pat down, be sure to smile and say "that was good for me was it good for you?" When they are finished.
its small but its growing make sure you leave enough time for security.....sometimes the line will surprise you.
Barry BakerJuly 23, 2013Security insists every carryon article must be in own tray, due to Xray machine breakdown unless hor doerves are individually plated. #OhYouFancy- Trever FlorkoOctober 17, 2011If you love Kelowna why not buy a home here!

John GerritsenMarch 29, 2011Americans are now segregated from all other passengers. If you want preflight refreshments, bring cash because the "Café" is always unmanned.
Just so you know, passengers on US bound flights are no longer segregated from domestic passengers (as of Sept 2011). US bound passengers can enjoy all amenities of the airport such as whitespot, etc
Parking rates keep increasing and parking machines don't give change back. Excellent
- FrEqOuTJuly 3, 2013This is the only airport that will take you back to arrivals if you accidentally walk passed your gate while boarding. Should be separate floors for arrivals and departures like normal airports have.
Free wifi!!! Seems quite reliable so far :) makes sitting at the airport a little easier- White spot is good and quick. Wine shop has good prices and decent selection.
Willi PowellMarch 21, 2010The large baggage check - READ Ski's - is at the opposite end of the airport as the security and departure check in! Baggage flow failure.
- D Darren MacDonaldOctober 9, 2010You can buy wine after you clear security, brilliant! Also, it doesn't count as a piece of baggage.
Thankfully there is a wine shop to load up on Okanagan wine before you leave.
Longest wait for baggage out of all the airports I have been to in the last 5 years.
Even for earlier flights security doesn't open until 4:30am
Avoid Skyway Restaurant in the departure lounge. Its menu is overpriced.
