After more than two years of intermittent lockdowns and travel restrictions, summer 2022 was the season that many Canadians decided they were ready to travel again. Our return to the skies hasn’t gone so smoothly, to say the least. Extended delays at the country’s airports have made headlines across the country, and with Air Canada’s announcement that it will cancel 154 flights per day for the rest of the summer, it could get even worse for air travellers, according to Prof. Karl Moore. But Canada isn’t alone in experiencing these challenges. The commercial air travel industry is under severe pressure globally. Many European countries have also experienced delays, and that could lead some travellers to be more forgiving of the shortcomings of the current air travel experience.
