MLB recently announced a $4 Million investment in its 40,000 sq.ft. customs facility, which Melbourne Airport Authority Chairman Jack L. Ryals promised will be one of the most technologically advanced border entry points in the U.S. “We are working with the leadership of Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) to ensure that MLB’s agents have the most sophisticated equipment on the market today, including the latest biometric devices,” he said. “We’re delighted to welcome NewLeaf and its enthusiastic Canadian budget-minded passengers,” said Greg Donovan, AAE, executive director of Orlando Melbourne International Airport (MLB). “Our airport’s reputation for a superior concierge experience, streamlined security and a faster customs experience is like no other Florida airport. Couple that with our breathtaking beaches and short drive to the theme parks, and we have a winning combination.” NewLeaf will offer low fares on its Boeing-737 aircraft operated by Flair Airlines, with Sunday departures from Hamilton International Airport (YHM) in the metro Toronto area.
