Ottawa Lowers Airport Fees

Jazz Air LP (Jazz) commended the Ottawa International Airport Authority's decision to reduce terminal fees by five percent, effective July 1, 2008. “Excessive fees, surcharges and taxes continue to plague the aviation industry - the situation is now made worse by soaring fuel prices,” said Jazz.President Joseph Randell. “Virtually all sectors of the economy are negatively affected by the excessive price of fuel and we applaud every effort made by our partners to lessen our cost burden, and strongly urge others to join this effort. Today's airline industry challenges are not limited to air carriers only. We firmly support the Ottawa airport authority's decision and are committed to a teamwork approach."
