Congratulations McCurdy Sydney Airport ✈️
A BIG WIN FOR OUR SMALL AIRPORT — AND A PROUD MOMENT FOR CAPE BRETON! 🏆✈️
We are incredibly proud to announce that the McCurdy Sydney Airport has been named the winner of the 2026 Public Relations Programs Award – Small Airport Category by Airports Council International – North America (ACI-NA)! 🎉
Earlier this week in Seattle, our airport was recognized for excellence in public relations on a North American stage, alongside airports from across Canada and the United States. To receive this prestigious industry award is an extraordinary honour and a significant milestone for an airport of our size.
We may be a small airport, but our commitment to the community we serve is anything but small. 💙
This award reflects the passion, creativity, dedication, and strong community connections that drive our work every day. It recognizes our commitment to sharing our airport's story, building meaningful relationships, and proudly championing Cape Breton and the vital role our airport plays in our island's future.
To be recognized among our North American peers is a powerful reminder that meaningful impact isn't measured by the size of an airport, but by the strength of its people, its partnerships, and its purpose.
This is an incredibly proud moment for our small but mighty team, our airport, and the entire Cape Breton community. We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who supports our airport, shares our stories, and believes in the importance of connecting our island to the world.
From Cape Breton to the North American stage — an extraordinary achievement for our small island airport, and an honour we're proud to share with the community we serve. 🏆💙✈️
