Travel Chaos Hits Major Canadian Airlines
Travel disruptions have affected multiple major airlines across Canada, with 154 flights delayed and 20 cancelled in Toronto, Montreal, and Calgary. Thousands of passengers are facing significant interruptions to their travel plans as a severe weather system approaches.
Widespread Flight Disruptions
Airlines impacted include PAL, Air Canada, WestJet, United, Delta, and Caribbean Airlines. Both domestic and international flights have been delayed or cancelled, causing frustration among travelers and straining airport operations nationwide.
Airports Respond to Weather Threat
Canada is bracing for an intense weather event known as a "weather bomb," expected to hit Newfoundland early next week. This rapidly intensifying system is bringing heavy snow, rain, and winds reaching 60–80 km/h. Travelers are being urged to monitor flight updates closely as conditions worsen.
Airports are urging passengers to stay informed about their flight statuses and remain flexible, as ongoing weather challenges could lead to further delays and cancellations.
Storm Development and Forecast
The storm is anticipated to strengthen over the Maritimes on Monday night before reaching Newfoundland by Tuesday morning. At that point, it will undergo bombogenesis, rapidly deepening into a full "weather bomb" that could severely impact eastern Newfoundland, including areas such as St. John’s.
Advice for Travelers
- Check flight status frequently before heading to the airport.
- Allow extra time for unexpected delays or rebookings.
- Stay patient as airlines work to manage cancellations and reroute passengers safely.
