At the Airport


Duty free, is it for me?


By Krista Gilman


Runway Duty Free at YWG. A


s you are departing from the Winnipeg Richardson In- ternational Airport you may have noticed the duty free


shops located across from Gates 3 and 5 and wondered who can shop there. Duty free is a service offered to people leaving the country. It allows them to shop and save on items they are allowed to bring into their destination country. Duty free shops offer products to con- sumers that are exempt from local or national taxes and duties.


82 • Summer 2015 Te Aer Rianta International's (ARI)


Runway Duty Free shop at Gate 3 is for transborder passengers flying into the United States. Tis shop offers many distinctly Canadian products for travel- lers to share with friends south of the border. Te ARI shop at Gate 5 services flights leaving Canada for warm weath- er destinations such as Cuba, Mexico and the Dominican Republic during the winter charter months. Most travellers are familiar with their personal exemptions when returning


to Canada from a trip abroad, but they are not always sure of the guidelines for bringing items into other countries. Each international destination has its own limits on imported items. Tank- fully, staff at the Runway Duty Free out- lets are extremely knowledgeable and are able to provide you with information on what you can take with you. Tey are also able to suggest some of their best-selling products and which items offer amazing savings over local market prices.
