Raise your hand if your boss has caught you daydreaming about a winter escape more than once this week... 🙌
It's ok, we've all been there.
Now is the time to stop daydreaming about your dream winter vacation and start planning it.
✈️ 🏖️ With non-stop flights to Cancun, Puerto Vallarta, Cabo San Lucas, Phoenix, and more, there's no easier option than to fly right from YQR.
Head to the yqr.ca/where-we-fly and see all the opportunities waiting for you.
🧡 Today, we pause to reflect. We honour the children who never returned home, the survivors, their families, and every life affected by residential schools.
At YQR, we believe public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process. Our commitment to Indigenous consultation, reconciliation, and partnership will continue with every step.

@FlyYQR Fire Dept. members commemorated Firefighters’ National Memorial Day with a half-masting of flags and a moment of silence to remember those that have given their lives in the service to others. #respect #wewillremember
🚒 Everything is OK, we promise!
This morning, YQR will be hosting a full-scale emergency exercise of a simulated aircraft incident on our airfield.
🔥 There may be large plumes of smoke that appear to be coming from the airport during this time. At the airport, there may be actors in makeup appearing to be in distress and an additional presence of first responders, media, or actors portraying loved ones/concerned citizens.
🧑🚒 👮 👷 Over 150 individuals from different organizations will be involved in or observing the exercise including Regina Fire, Regina Police, City Officials, CBSA, Public Safety Canada, NAV Canada, RCMP, Public Health Canada, Regina Transit, Local Airline Staff, STARS, SPSA, SHA, Regina Airport Authority Staff, and volunteers.
🗓️ Transport Canada mandates that internationally designated Canadian airports test their emergency response plan every two years with a full-scale exercise.
💚 We want to thank our exercise participants, the public, and our travellers in advance for their support of this very important event at YQR.
We hate to say it, but... winter is on the horizon. 🫣

🚧ROAD CLOSURE ALERT 🚧
Starting Monday, June 22, 2026, YQR will be repaving a section of Regina Avenue at the entrance to the airport property.
This paving project is expected to last 2 days. Please follow the posted roadway signs to use Buffalo Trail as an entry/exit route for accessing the Airport Terminal, Rental Car Lot and Parking Lots.
During the project, the Cell Phone Waiting Lot will be unavailable for use.
We appreciate your understanding and patience as we maintain our infrastructure to continue to serve our community better!
We have learned that information has been shared online regarding alert messages that are only to be shared internally. The purpose of these messages is to ready our staff and close partners in the event of a potential issue or event at the airport that may necessitate the activation of our emergency operations centre (EOC).
Earlier today there was a non-credible threat made against the airport. The alerting software provides a pre-scripted message to our staff on the nature of the concern. These messages are not intended for the public and should not have been published online. We want to assure those coming to YQR today that there was no event and the airport’s operations are normal. As per their protocol, RPS takes these threats very seriously and will be investigating further.
🧡🌿🎨🪶🧵 It's back for another year!
Join us on June 17th as we celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day with the 4th Annual #IndigenousArtisanMarket!

🌻The sunflower is on the move.🌻
To kick off National AccessAbility Week, we’re joining airports across Canada in passing the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower lanyard.
The Hidden Disabilities Sunflower is a globally recognized program that helps people with non-visible disabilities discreetly signal that they may need extra time, support, or understanding as they move through an airport.

🌻Le tournesol est en mouvement.🌻
Pour lancer la Semaine nationale de l’accessibilité, nous nous joignons aux aéroports partout au Canada pour faire circuler le cordon Tournesol des handicaps invisibles.
Le programme Tournesol des handicaps invisibles est reconnu mondialement et permet aux personnes ayant un handicap non-visible d’indiquer discrètement qu’elles pourraient avoir besoin de plus de temps, de soutien ou de compréhension lors de leur passage à l’aéroport.
One year of YQR 🤝 DEN and honestly? Kind of an iconic duo. ✈️
🍾 Cheers to @united (operated by SkyWest), @DENAirport, all our @FlyYQR staff, and of course every passenger who made the first 365 days of this new service a resounding success!
⏪ As we host our AGM and release our 2025 Annual Report, we wanted to #rewind and take a look back at all the amazing things that happened at YQR last year.
It was a year of growth, partnerships, community, and of course our passengers!
🥳 Onward into the rest of 2026!
