Not only can the Toronto Airport Wayfinder be seen and heard online but if you're tech-saavy and love your new iPhone, Blackberry Bold, or another one of the latest high speed WiFi-enabled handheld devices, you can find your way through Pearson Airport and get the true picture. Using the latest internet streaming technologies, the Airport Wayfinder provides travelers with a new way to obtain airport information before they fly, giving travelers captivating 3D perspectives of airport overviews and locations of everything from international and domestic passenger arrivals to connecting processes to a variety of passenger services.

Toronto Pearson's Ron Caughlin, Director of Marketing and Business Development says, "We recognize that for some passengers, navigating their way through an airport can be challenging and that is why we are very pleased to offer this new service that will allow a passenger to experience the airport before they actually get here."

Nancy Grimes, the program's founder and executive producer, says, "Wayfinding or finding one's way, is not simply a matter of following signs and directions. It involves all the information that people use to negotiate an environment – their own past wayfinding experiences, their attitudes toward new experience, and their levels of perception and recognition. People like to know what to expect, especially if they are connecting to other flights through Toronto Pearson.

"By calling up Airport Wayfinder online through www.gtaa.com or through Toronto Pearson's new Mobile Web portal, travelers can access needed airport information from their home, office, at the airport... Anywhere they have an internet connection."
