The Quebec Airport is called Jean Lesage International Airport and operations began here in 1939 when the Aerodrome Saint-Louis Airport stopped servicing customers. This transport hub is a short drive from the city and can be accessed with car rental in Quebec Airport. Budget options are an easy method of saving money while you are on holiday.
The building was upgraded in 2006 to improve customer services and expand the airport’s facilities. As part of this initiative the size of the waiting room was increased and the baggage handling area was reconstructed. These improvements increased the airport’s traffic flow as expansion work means that the building can accommodate more passengers.
Shops are scattered around the main terminal area and there are retail stores selling souvenirs and books. This is a good place to purchase something to read during your flight and there are also a variety of magazines on sale. The on-site restaurant and bar is popular among passengers waiting to board their flights.
Car rental in Quebec Airport gives tourists the freedom to explore the city at their leisure. With car rental you can access the city’s museums and parks. There are 22 provincial parks to choose from and most of these gardens are well maintained.
The Refor Gardens draw international tourists and Montmorecy Falls is a good day outing. These waterfalls are located on the outskirts of the city and are easily accessible by road. Alternatively spend the day at a theme park or take a cruise.
