Longer Waiting Times at Toronto Pearson Airport Due to Network Outage

Toronto Pearson International Airport is grappling with a network outage, leading to extended delays on Friday, right before the long weekend. The Canadian Air Transportation Security Authority (CATSA) alerted travelers to the network disruption, which occurred at Terminal 1’s transborder checkpoint slightly past 9:30 a.m.

Lines have improved in Terminal 1, but passengers should be aware that wait times have ebbed and flowed throughout the morning. CATSA is working to resolve the issue. https://t.co/0cKX9lguKZ

“[It] is causing longer than usual wait times. Your patience is appreciated,” CATSA said in a social media post.

Less than an hour later, Pearson said lines have improved, but passengers should be aware that wait times have “ebbed and flowed” throughout the morning.

CATSA is working to resolve the issue as “quickly as possible,” the agency said.
