Porter's spirits come from Tumbler and Rocks in Fort Saskatchewan . . . . that is pretty local in my opinion.

Apparently it was because the online customs scanners weren't working so I think that's something we wouldn't want to happen lol

Where would be the best spot to park up and take a toddler plane spotting near EIA?

Yep, we've been there, done that and look how the heck it turned out. However, it may make more sense for a much larger city whose main airport is already quite busy.

Haven't been but I heard this is a good spot: https://maps.app.goo.gl/UurBrgzTmcdrdeTm9
Also there is an observation lounge inside the airport, the doorway is a bit hard to find though:
Public Observation Area
Level 3, (Mezzanine) YEG Main TerminalThis deck provides great views of the aircraft gates, aprons and taxiways.
On Level 2, take the escalator or elevator between Flight Stop and Central Security up to Level 3 to the Observation Deck/Mezzanine. Follow the bridge to Central Tower.

Um im not enduring any suffering or making any sacrifice by NOT flying through Calgary. To call me a martyr is simply false.
I think your “textbook” is from temu.

Speaking of Calgary YYC - upwards of 6 million + passengers & about 66,000 passengers each day in Summer 2026 season.
(If) you do the math - half of 6 million = about 3 million+ total connecting passengers through YYC for S26 & Half of 66,000 = about 33,000 connecting passengers passing through YYC each day this summer.
