Halifax, N.S., 2015-10-28 — /Travel PR News/ — Glen Boone has been appointed Director of Real Estate and Commercial Development at Halifax International Airport Authority (HIAA), effective November 9, 2015.
In this new position, Mr. Boone will be responsible for matters related to real estate and commercial development.

“It’s a pleasure to welcome Glen to Halifax Stanfield and our HIAA executive management team,” says Joyce Carter, HIAA President & CEO. “I am confident Glen’s extensive property development knowledge will complement our commercial development team as they focus on the development of our airport property and our non-aeronautical revenue.”
Glen has a Bachelor of Arts in Geography from Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick, with a concentration in Rural and Small Town Planning.
