A journey begins for Melissa Doiron

Melissa Doiron had always believed that the best stories begin with a simple “yes.” 

So, when she chose to complete the I FLY YSJ survey, she didn’t think much of it. It was just another small way to share her love of travel and her appreciation for the Saint John Airport. 

But sometimes the smallest moments lead to the most exciting chapters.

Weeks later, the Saint John woman received news that felt like the start of a brand-new adventure. She was the winner of the I FLY YSJ survey draw – flights for two anywhere in Canada that Air Canada flies. Just like that, her next journey was ready for takeoff.

For someone who has already explored breathtaking destinations like Canmore and Banff, danced through the vibrant streets of Nashville, and taken in the iconic sights of San Francisco, choosing a favourite place has never been easy. But one thing has always remained clear: Melissa loves the feeling of discovering somewhere new.

Now, with her prize in hand, her sights are set on Vancouver and Whistler, which are “next on the Canadian bucket list for my son and me,” she shared with excitement. 

It’s the perfect match for her travel spirit: towering mountains paired with the energy of city life.

For Melissa, travel at YSJ starts with ease, friendly faces, smooth check-ins, and a stress-free experience from start to finish. 

One of her favourite touches is the YSJ Market inside departures, where she can grab a coffee after going through security, which is especially helpful for those early morning flights.

Congratulations, Melissa! Your next chapter is about to take flight!
