From the Niagara Falls Review:
Bob Benson doesn’t have a staff of full-time employees. Most of the folks who make the run to Pearson, Hamilton or Buffalo-Niagara International airports to drop off or pick up travellers for Niagara Airbus are retired and work a few hours a week to supplement their pensions.
But the general manager of operations said like Niagara’s other tourism industry insiders, he’s concerned about the effect cancelling the visitor rebate program will have on business.
Very definitely, it does affect our industry. Taxis as well, said Benson. If people aren’t coming, it affects us. We don’t have full-time people to lay off, but certainly hours could be cut.
