It is the 7th busiest airport in Canada and the busiest in Atlantic Canada serving 3.0 million passengers in 2003. Its IATA Airport Code is YHZ. Since 2000 it has been operated by the private organization, Halifax International Airport Authority (HIAA). Halifax International Aiport fared well in the 2004 AETRA survey for passenger satisfaction, produced by IATA and Airports Council International. Halifax International Airport was ranked the best airport in the Americas, as well as the best airport in the < 5 million pax/year catagory, best domestic service and third best for most improvement. Since 1998, Halifax International Airport has been undergoing an extensive renovation program. The next phase of this program was announced in September, 2004. On September 11, 2001, Halifax International Airport was part of Operation Yellow Ribbon, as it took 44 flights--more than any other Canadian airport involved in the operation--carrying about 7,300 passengers--more passengers than any other Canadian airport other than Vancouver International Airport. Much of this was because flights that were coming from Europe were told to avoid the major airports in Central Canada, like Lester Pearson in Toronto and Dorval (now Pierre Trudeau) in Montreal.
