Well this isn’t going to make things any better…
How bad are the backups in the customs halls at Pearson? So bad that the fire chief for Canada’s busiest airport has warned airlines that if they let passengers off before they’re told to, they will be in violation of the National Fire Code.
…
Fire Chief Todd Aitken issued the directive on June 23, and it came into effect on July 1. A copy of the directive shared with the Toronto Sun blames the problems with clearing passengers through Pearson on federal government requirements.
As a result, all international flights arriving in Toronto must now hold passengers on the plane until they are given specific instructions that they can be released.
