How long does it take to tour
the facility? |

Is there a place to leave
bags and jackets? |

If you are visiting SpacePort
as a member of a scheduled program there is an area where you may
deposit lunch bags, backpacks, etc. Unfortunately the general public
must be in possession of their baggage at all times as Airport
Security is known to confiscate any unattended bags. If you have
luggage that you would like to store for a few hours this can be
done through the Tourism Calgary information center located on
the arrivals level of the terminal. |

locations throughout the airport terminal where you are able to
log in. |
