A sea of people flooded the kiosks in the terminals of the Calgary International Airport on Saturday as unfavourable weather prompted delays and the cancellation of flights.
As of 3:00 p.m. Saturday, 21 domestic flights and a WestJet flight to Loreto had been cancelled. The flight interruptions resulted in long lines of passengers looking to either rebook or arrange accommodations for the night.
A number of flights that successfully departed from the airport experienced weather-related delays.
Safety is a top priority for us, and our airline partners. Airline deicing teams are working hard today to get aircraft on their way safely. We appreciate your patience.
