While the air transport industry welcomed news that millions of unvaccinated Canadians will soon be allowed to fly, experts and unions said a new influx of travellers could worsen the ongoing delays at airports across the country. The government announced that starting June 20 proof of vaccination will not be required to board a train or a plane in Canada. As of May 22, just over 18 per cent of Canadians 鈥� almost seven million people 鈥� did not have at least two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. ()

Here is an expert from 麻豆AV that can provide comment on this issue:

鈥�While most Canadians are celebrating the end of vaccination mandates for domestic travel, there remain significant barriers associated with international travel that should be top of mind this summer travel season. Air travellers can continue to expect airfares creeping up and travel disruptions at major Canadian hub airports as passenger volumes increase. Welcome to summer 2022 travel!鈥�
