The Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA) is warning that long lineups could be a problem at many airports.
Delays of more than two hours at security have been reported at airports in Toronto and Vancouver this week, but Gord Duke with the Prince George Airport noted they aren’t seeing the same issue.
CATSA said it’s experiencing a staffing shortage, and is having problems hiring and retaining workers.
One of the other issues the federal agency pointed to was that more passengers are bringing carry-on baggage, and that can delay security screening.
