The Greater Toronto Airports Authority says it’s well-prepared for the summer travel season at Toronto Pearson International Airport.
They’ve increased staffing and made technological improvements following widespread delays and cancellations that travellers experienced last year. They have hired 130 new staff to help handle critical areas such as busing, baggage handling and terminal operations.Through a new partnership with the Canada Border Services Agency they will deploy biometric e-gates and expedite customs clearance for travellers.
Meanwhile, an upgraded baggage system relying on AI technology is designed to anticipate overloading and detect potential breakdowns before they occur. Earlier this year, the airport authority said it would cap the number of flights into and out of Pearson during peak travel periods in attempt to reduce traffic following a surge in demand last summer that led to overflowing baggage halls, stranded passengers and tens of thousands of flight cancellations.Ctrl+Enter
