Prince George, B.C. – The Prince George Airport has  launched a new website that  has some extra features.YXS

The new site,  which can be accessed here has  some interactive applications, such as live flight tracking.  This feature will allow  you to  see, in real time,  a flight’s location  and when it will land.

“Technology changes at such a rapid pace and we felt it was time to join the responsive world in terms of web design, so this new website is user friendly no matter what device you are on” says  PG Airport Authority President and CEO John Gibson.

The site still  provides  arrival and departure schedules,  travel tips and  parking information but  in addition to the live flight tracking,  it has added a   Google 360 Business View tour of the terminal, and a page on the  airport’s mascot Amelia Bearheart  with a  colouring book that can be downloaded.

The site’s address remains the same, http://www.pgairport.ca

Ask them how much they spent, and if was more than 130k the city is throwing away.

    There is no comparison with the breadth of information the City’s website needs to carry. As a result, even if the same firm were to do the web site, the City’s web site would cost substantially more.

    While they are both web sites, they differ as night does from day.

If you want a really good flight tracker, check out flightaware.com

The site looks pretty good. There is a lot of information, from transportation services to aircraft landing and parking fees.
