“Sun-seekers traveling from YYC Calgary International Airport are excited to have another direct link to Palm Springs, California,” said Bob Sartor, the Calgary Airport Authority’s President and CEO. “Working with our partner, Air Canada, we’re creating effortless ways to enjoy the stunning Coachella Valley.”
