Nearly 50 Canadian airports set to reopen to international travel this week

For the first time in nearly two years, dozens of Canadian airports will be allowed to welcome international flights.

According to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), they are gradually bringing back border services to select airports across the country.

These smaller airports have been affected by temporary COVID-19 measures, but now they’ll once again be able to accommodate international travellers.

Travellers coming into Canada still need to be eligible to enter Canada, meet all entry requirements, and have their passports.

Additionally, travellers should complete their ArriveCAN submission – including their vaccine information – within 72 hours of getting to the border.

For more information on COVID-19-related changes to ports of entry, you can check out CBSA’s website for more information. Here’s the full list of which Canadian airports will have CBSA service again with operating hours included:
