BNN: 'Travelers returning to the skies after a two-year hiatus are facing chaos at Canada’s busiest airport, Toronto Pearson International, with soaring wait times and flight cancellations due to labor shortages.
'The problem has been building for weeks and is getting worse. Last week, 199 flights at Pearson were were canceled, 6 per cent of all scheduled departures, compared with about 1 per cent during the first week of May, according to data from aviation analytics firm Cirium Ltd.
'Security lines are so long that Air Canada is warning customers heading to U.S. destinations to arrive at Pearson at least three hours before departure. That’s about twice as long as the flight time from Toronto to New York.
