An intense winter storm is slated to hit Quebec and Ontario this week, and Canadian airlines are bracing for impact. Air Canada, Porter, Sunwing and WestJet have posted travel alerts in preparation for the inclement weather. Canadians with flights departing from Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto between February 22 and 24 are especially advised to check with their carrier before heading to the airport, as some airlines are anticipating cancellations and offering easier rebooking options. Here's how each major airline is reacting to the storm.
WestJet announced early on July 14 that an outage is affecting the airline's airport check-in, flight planning and payment services in airports across Canada and abroad a situation that is causing major flight delays. This only adds further salt to travellers' wounds, with many hit by flight delays and cancellations by many Canadian and other airlines or stuck in airport lineups, or lineups to get passports in order to travel.
