On June 25, 2026, airports across the country, including YUL Aéroport de Montréal, will celebrate Airport Workers Day, a national initiative led by the Canadian Airports Council that recognizes the people who play a vital role in the daily operation of our airports. 

Shine a light on a colleague who makes a difference!
In preparation for this celebration, a call for nominations is now open to select nine airport workers who will be honoured for their outstanding work, dedication, and contribution to our industry. Every team has people who go above and beyond, who inspire others, and who make our environment more human and more efficient. This initiative allows you to nominate a colleague whose work deserves recognition.  

Submit their nomination by March 31, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. by completing the form here. 

Who can submit a nomination? Airport management, airlines, colleagues, and even passengers. In short, anyone who wishes to recognize the work of an airport community employee. 

Who can be nominated? Any employee working at an airport: baggage handlers, security personnel, maintenance teams, concession employees, customer service representatives, cleaning staff, or airport authority employees. 

What are the award categories? Rising Star, Excellence in Efficiency Optimization, Airport Innovator, Environmental Steward, Outstanding Service, Operational Excellence, Outstanding Leadership, Industry Champion, Outstanding Contribution to Safety and/or Security.

Nominating a colleague is a meaningful way to acknowledge their impact and help highlight the strength of our airport community. It only takes a few minutes to recognize an employee who stands out and contributes to the success of Airport Workers Day 2026. 

Thank you for joining us in celebrating the people who make a real difference!
