It is of moderate size, with some fairly generic shops and restaurants.
It is about half an hour from Halifax, which is the only remotely interesting place nearby. It was built well inland to avoid the fogs off the ocean, but clearing the land for the airport produced conditions that induced fogs. There are also many snowstorms in the winter. I would bring good books or a laptop in case there is a long wait.
The only recent crash was a cargo 747 loaded with lobsters and riding mowers that was heading for Nigeria.
