After Canada lifted all COVID-era travel restrictions, air travel saw a significant rebound in 2023, but it did not reach pre-pandemic levels, Statistics Canada says.
In 2023, Canadian airports handled over 150 million passengers, a 26.8 percent increase from the previous year, according to the “Airport Activity” report released on July 4. This volume nears the pre-pandemic levels of roughly 163 million in 2019.
