Abbotsford – You know the dog days of summer are here. Time for the Abbotsford Air Show- August 12-14.
BC Transit will help get you there and back, conveniently and safely.
A special shuttle bus, the Airshow Shuttle, will run Friday evening and all day Saturday and Sunday from Bourquin Exchange in downtown Abbotsford to Highstreet Mall and then to Abbotsford International Airport and back.
