I recall that in the years leading up to UP Express that it was claimed that you'd be able to check into your flight at Union Station. I seem to have missed this when I was last there. Are there check in terminals?
There were also rumours that some airlines would even have a baggage check in, specifically WestJet and Air Canada. What became of this?
Union-Pearson Express has the potential to obsolete the need for the island airport if they can make it seem that Union Station is a downtown wing of Pearson International. They're almost there. Being able to check in and drop off your bags at Union Station, then spending some time downtown and boarding the train to your flight would become a very attractive feature of Union-Pearson Express and all but eliminate the market for the island airport.
