Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport is loved by travellers because it offers a unique travel experience that is based on convenience, accessibility, friendly service, and incredible views. Passengers often share their stories and experiences about the advantages of flying in and out of Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport to our staff in-person or online on social media. It was these stories that inspired the It’s My Airport campaign.

We reached out to passengers who had posted about the airport on social media to star in our campaign and used their actual stories and posts. This campaign also features the stories and experiences of Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport staff and airport partners.

The people staring in this campaign were not scripted so the campaign spotlights their authentic, genuine experiences at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, whether as a passenger or an employee.

Themes which emerged from candid interviews with the passengers, staff, and partners included the airport’s proximity to downtown, the ability to walk or bike to the airport, friendly customer service, the airport’s sustainability practices and the breath-taking views. It is these themes, and many more, that you will see, hear and read through elements of this exciting campaign.
