WestJet has only one flight from Lethbridge , Alberta , to Calgary every day .
The Lethbridge airport has been plagued by problems since the twinning of Highway II in the 1990s .
Airline expert Rick Erickson says Lethbridge needs to be offered destinations other than Calgary .
He says budget airlines would be the most likely candidates to enter the Lethbridge market.
Erickson says Lethbridge is too distant from the YYC hub that it is not an option as a de facto secondary airport for the Calgary metropolitan area.
Erickson : "It’s going to take a very, very strong marketing ploy to overcome that. I think it's doable.”.
