Unprecedented Meeting Between The Port And The Airport

It's being called the dawn of a new era of co-operation between the airport and the port to boost the number of visitors to the city. 

Tourism Minister Trevor Holder is pressing forward with promoting the Bay of Fundy as a world class tourist destination. 

Port Authority President and C-E-O Jim Quinn tells CHSJ News the Bay of Fundy was in the running a couple of years ago to be one of the 7 natural wonders of the world. 

He says if Saint John becomes the starting off point for cruise ships, it would not only mean passengers spending more time in the city before the depart but could result in more flights in and out of Saint John because they would have to get here somehow.
