Gayle and I flew into YYT from Montreal on the front end of our Newfoundland adventure and departed…read more5 days later via a non stop to Toronto. Both flights were on Air Canada. The St. John's Airport is on the smaller side for a Capital airport and reminded me of Reno or Baton Rouge in terms of size and easy walkability. On the Arrival side, baggage claim (and doing the rental car paperwork while I waited was straightforward and timely. However, the actual walk to the rental car lot was quite a schlep, and it's probably worse in the winter. On the Departure side, Security had the right combination of firm, efficient, and helpful. The latter was key as Gayle inadvertently carried a number of greater than 100 ml lotions and liquids through Security. She was nicely and patiently offered the chance to go back and have them checked, which she did. And Air Canada was nice enough the check that 2nd bag for free. Past Security, there's really only one restaurant/bar (YellowBelly) plus a newsstand, a few local crafts shops, and an interesting vending machine that dispensed frozen local seafood choices. The gates are all in one row, so getting my steps by going up and down worked out well. My most interesting purchase was for an issue of a local magazine called Downhome. Our Air Canada gate turned into a bit of a scrum due to all the people in a relatively small space. And when they offered earlier seating if I checked my carry on bag, I took it. I almost forgot to mention that YYT is well located within St. John's and it's super easy to drive out one day and back in the other. There's also a petrol station at the entrance for filling up your rental car. I hope to experience YYT again, either for another take on Newfoundland or maybe one of the smaller planes that go to Labrador and other points North.

It's a nice and efficient "small city" airport…read more My family and I arrived 2.5 hours before our flight, which evidently was way too much. We ended up walking around the check-in area for about 45 minutes before deciding to go thru security and see what's on the other side. Security check only took 8-10 minutes. Easy peasy. On the other side, there are a couple of bars, but what caught my attention was a seafood freezer stall. Yes, you can buy frozen local seafood here that you can take on your flight home! Reasonable prices too which is a bonus. They'll even pack it for you so that you can fit it in your carry-on, or in a easy to go tote bag (small charge for it). It's not a huge airport and there aren't too many connections here, but if you end up needing to use this airport, rest assured you won't be disappointed by its offerings.

At the botanical garden they have a priority # and they called a cab to pick us up and take us to a local cemetery. When we needed picked up the cemetery I was on hold for at least 10 min. Then I had to figure out an address since the cemetery doesn't have a house number. Took over 30 min to get a taxi to The Rooms. From there it was all downhill. I totally suggest downloading the taxi app. City Wide Taxi

After staying in various hotels across the province, it's nice to have a place in a large city (by their standards) where I can walk outside and have multiple choices for restaurants and bars. My room was large and brightly lit. Clean as well. Lots of TV channel options, and the TVs themselves were of excellent quality. A/C was a bit loud initially, but I eventually acclimated to it. Overall no complaints at all with the hotel.
