We've all driven past Nanaimo Airport (YCD) without a second thought. After going behind the scenes, that's changed.

We got rare access to parts of YCD most people never see: the roof, a ride in an aircraft rescue truck, the luggage system, and a taxiway nicknamed "Golf" where private pilots taxi straight to a golf course.

Here is how practical flying from Nanaimo actually is:

✅ 11-minute flight to Vancouver vs. hours on the ferry
✅ Pre-screened in Nanaimo, no lineup at YVR
✅ Parking from $14/day (vs. $67+/day at YVR)
✅ Flies to Vancouver, Kelowna, Calgary + Edmonton (seasonal)
✅ 97% dependability rating and still improving

One of our team members walked past a 3-hour YVR security lineup this winter on the way to their connecting flight. That's what flying from Nanaimo can do for your travel day.

Thinking about a move to Central Vancouver Island? YCD is a perk worth knowing about.

Did you know YCD connected this many places? 👇


❓ Where does Nanaimo Airport (YCD) fly to?
Nanaimo Airport (YCD) offers direct flights to Vancouver, Kelowna, and Calgary, with seasonal service to Edmonton. Air Canada, WestJet, and Pacific Coastal Airlines all operate out of YCD.

❓ How much does parking cost at Nanaimo Airport?
Long-term parking at YCD costs $14/day for the first 7 days, then $9/day after. Much cheaper than YVR at over $67/day.

❓ How early do I need to arrive at Nanaimo Airport?
The recommended arrival time is 120 minutes before your flight. YCD is small, well-staffed, and far less congested than major hubs.

❓ Is it better to fly from Nanaimo or take the ferry?
Flying from YCD takes 11 minutes to Vancouver. You are pre-screened in Nanaimo, so you skip the security line at YVR entirely for connecting flights.

❓ How reliable is Nanaimo Airport?
YCD has a 97% dependability rating. Recent lighting upgrades lowered the minimum descent altitude to 250 feet, the lowest in the airport's history, improving reliability in poor weather.

❓ Is there food at Nanaimo Airport?
Yes, Connections Cafe offers food and a licensed bar inside the terminal. A great spot to relax before your flight.

❓ Is Nanaimo a good place to live if you travel frequently?
Nanaimo is a great base for frequent travellers. YCD offers quick connections to Vancouver and beyond!

When people talk about retirement, they usually focus on what they’re going to do.

Travel.
Spend time with family.
Take up new hobbies.

But what about the moments in between?

Where do you have your morning coffee?
Where do you spend a quiet afternoon?
What do you look out at when you’re simply enjoying being home?

That’s what stood out to us about this home in Edgewood Estates.

Perched above Departure Bay, the view is constantly changing. Ferries arrive and depart. Seaplanes come and go. Fishing boats return to harbour. Even the weather becomes part of the experience.

Inside, you’ll find a move-in ready home with a spacious kitchen, multiple outdoor living spaces, a double garage, and plenty of storage. But the real feature is how connected you feel to the world around you without ever leaving home.

📍 Edgewood Estates, Nanaimo
✔ 55+ Community
✔ Departure Bay Views
✔ Double Garage
✔ Move-In Ready
✔ Multiple Decks

What’s more important in retirement: the view, the community, or the convenience?

There’s a type of property a lot of buyers around Nanaimo and Ladysmith are starting to look for right now… and it’s surprisingly hard to find.

You either end up in a tight subdivision, or you’re too far out, disconnected from everything.

This property sits right in the middle of that.

Set on a quiet no-through road just outside Ladysmith, you get space, privacy, usable land, a shop, RV setup, and a setting that actually feels removed… while still being close enough for day-to-day life.

If you’ve been looking for more breathing room without going fully rural, message us “GROUHEL” and we’ll send you the details.

POV: you finish work and come home to a private little sanctuary in the middle of the city.

1040 Moyse Crescent is the kind of home that feels easy the moment you walk in.

Single-level living.
Thoughtful upgrades.
A warm natural gas fireplace.
A detached powered workshop off the alley.
And a yard that feels far more peaceful than you’d expect this close to everything.

One of the things we noticed immediately was how cared for this property feels. The important work has been done over time, including crawl space and perimeter drain improvements that many buyers never think to ask about until it’s too late.

Inside, the kitchen has been beautifully updated with an L-shaped island, farm sink, gas stove, and a window looking directly into a mature cherry tree next door.

This isn’t a flashy house.
It’s a comfortable one.
And for the right buyer, that matters more.

DM “MOYSE” for the full photo package and floor plan.
