The new gates have been equipped with handrails for greater accessibility, additional space for passenger queues, along with roll-up doors to preserve energy within the gates.

PortsToronto CEO Geoffrey Wilson said: “All of the upgrades to the lounges have been intended, designed and implemented with the passenger experience as top priority.”

Formerly known as the Toronto Port Authority, PortsToronto is responsible for the management of the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport.
