Several airports say flights have been delayed due to an issue involving WestJet.
Ottawa International Airport, Toronto Pearson Airport, Saskatoon International Airport, Montréal–Trudeau International Airport and Calgary International Airport are among those who reported issues this morning.
Saskatoon and Montreal’s airports both say it’s due to “network-wide technical issues.”
“This morning, WestJet experienced a temporary system outage that delayed the handover of aircraft from maintenance personnel for scheduled operation,” a spokesperson for the airline said in a statement.
“WestJet expedited efforts to resolve the technological issue and a return to normal operations is underway. We apologize to any guests who may have experienced a disruption to their travel plans.”
The Toronto and Montreal airports have since reported that the issue has been resolved but are encouraging customers to check their flight status.
