Non-U.S. international travel to Canada is 35.5 per cent below where it was in 2019
With severe winter weather across North America prompting airlines to cancel thousands of flights, leaving countless people stranded, airports may feel more congested today than they were before the COVID-19 pandemic virtually halted air travel.
All COVID-19 border restrictions, including vaccination, mandatory use of the ArriveCAN app as well as all testing and quarantine requirements, were removed for all travellers entering Canada by land, air, or sea as of Oct. 1. Canadian residents returned from 3.3 million trips abroad in October 2022. That was close to four times the number of trips taken in October 2021, and was 76.1 per cent of the number of trips taken in October 2019.
Data for that month shows that B.C. lags the rest of Canada in attracting back visitors, compared with 2019.
