Pearson International Airport in Toronto opened its new Terminal 1, a striking gateway of glass, granite and steel designed by the architects Moshe Safdie and David Childs. Decorated with modern art, the terminal, one of the world's costliest, has won acclaim for its navigability, natural light and 12,000-car garage. The completion of Terminal 1, which cost $2.7 billion, at $1.35 Canadian to the U.S. dollar, ends the first phase of a plan to double the airport's capacity, to 50 million passengers a year, by 2015. But the opening has been clouded by concerns about high user fees and the precarious situation of its anchor tenant, Air Canada, which is struggling to emerge from bankruptcy protection. The International Air Transport Association, which represents 175 airlines, has complained that user fees at Pearson could rise by as much as 150 percent to pay off the Greater Toronto Airport Authority's $4.4 billion debt. And Air Canada has been mired in turmoil since it filed for protection from creditors on April 1, 2003. Shortly before Terminal 1 opened, Trinity Time Investments of Hong Kong withdrew an offer to buy 31 percent of the beleaguered airline, citing disputes with the Air Canada's unions over pension plans. The airline's restructuring chief, Calin Rovinescu, has since resigned and Air Canada is pursuing alternative financing. A new business plan calls for the airline to cut back on domestic flights and focus on international routes. An Air Canada spokeswoman, Laura Cooke, said the new terminal would benefit the airline by making Toronto a gateway to global travelers. Flights from Toronto to New Delhi and Tel Aviv, for example, already attract a significant number of American passengers.

Low-Rise Resort Opens on Antigua At Carlisle Bay, a resort on Antigua that opened in late December, the two- and three-story buildings are strung out along the beach, allowing it to accommodate nearly 200 guests while still feeling intimate. The furnishings of the 88 studio and three-bedroom suites, in neutral tones, are more urban than island, a nod to One Aldwych, its sister hotel in London. Along with a fitness center, a library and espresso makers in the rooms, there are cribs, high chairs, sand toys and baby sitters available. Indigo on the Beach, one of two restaurants at the resort, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a menu of Mediterranean food with Caribbean touches like juicy jerk chicken wings and spiced flying fish. East, serving dinner only, has inventive pan-Asian food. The resort is on the calmer Caribbean side of the island, near the southern tip, with nearly half a mile of beach. A large pool and nine tennis courts are set among gardens. A Beach Suite is $595 a night from May to mid-December for two; it was $850 in high season. Ocean Suites, with spacious bedrooms a few steps up from the sitting areas, are about $100 more. Rates include a copious breakfast and tea, but not 10 percent service and 8.5 percent tax. Information and reservations, (800) 628-8929 or www.carlisle-bay.com.
