Citing the high cost of doing business at Toronto's Pearson International Airport, Israel's El Al Airlines said yesterday it was cutting the number of landings to five a week this summer from 10, and down to three a week starting in September.

"Toronto has the highest operating costs of any airport in the world," said Stanley Morais, general manager for El Al in Canada. "In order to grow the market properly and minimize our costs in a substantial way, we had to eliminate as much as we could the number of landings in Toronto."
