Here is the link to the pdf for the 2013 annual report of the Greater Moncton International Airport.
http://www.cyqm.ca/site/media/gmia/GIMA_AR2013_ENG_WEB.pdf
Highlights:
- completion of the extension of Runway 06/24 to 10,000 feet in October at a cost of $24M.
- expansion of Apron 5 to accommodate larger FedEx aircraft
- the addition of two sun destination flights for the 2014 season, bringing the total number to 11
- the opening of an economy parking lot on the south side of the airport
- the annual number of customers who used the GMIA’s air services rose approximately 5.3% to 647,682 – a new record!
- on the air cargo front, we experienced a 8.5% increase in cargo tonnage handled at this facility, bringing our annual total to 24,171 tonnes. This is principally due to three reasons. First, the modest improvement in the world economy and, hence, the use of air to ship product, the addition of UPS to the GMIA family and, finally, Bluebird Cargo
FOR THE PERIOD 2014-2018, THE FOCUS OF THE BOARD AND MANAGEMENT OF THE GMIA WILL BE:
• a continuance of growth in both the air passenger and air cargo sectors to over 700,000 and 40,000 tonnes respectively;
• to establish an air cargo precinct, inclusive of cargo-related infrastructure, as part of developing the region into the Air Cargo Logistics Centre of Excellence for Atlantic Canada;
• replacement of aging operational infrastructure; underway is the planning for the construction of a new combined service building;
• a continuance of identifying green initiatives where economically practical and feasible;
• a continuance of working with all stakeholders regarding the above issues; and
• working with the Canadian Airports Council (CAC) and others, to encourage the federal government

. Just remember if following this flight on flightaware... both times it showed a departure time of 2030, the flight last week departed at 1800, 1810 the flight prior.
Downtown Halifax to YHZ is about 35KM, which certainly feels like 70KM.
