GO to Waterton, directly from the airport, bypassing Calgary, for all
intents.

If his flight arrives at 9pm, by the time he's in a rental car it will

Getting THROUGH the city? You don't really know Calgary. 4 to 6 lane freeway
skirts its whole eastern outskirts. No prob. Besides, they might be arriving
early in the afternoon.

After hitting the airport, heading south, your only practical option is
Deerfoot. During rush hour that's a good 90 minute trip to the southern
border. Rush hour more or less starts around 3:30-4pm and runs to
5:30pm.

If you happen to arrive earlier, you'll get through much faster. Of
course, arriving early afternoon would make it a no-brainer to drive
through, the only reason to delay would be if you don't land until
somewhat later in the afternoon/evening.
