Passenger volumes continue to set records at Kelowna International Airport.
Interim airport manager Sam Sammadar says more than a quarter-million passengers have flown in and out of Kelowna since January 1, a 10-percent increase over the first two months of last year.
In January, 129,000 passengers were recorded and 127,000 in February.
Sammadar says the terminal often operates at 100 percent and even 110 percent of capacity on its busiest days.
The city-owned airport is now busy expanding the departure and pre-board screening areas, targeting an opening of the enlarged facilities this May.
