Toronto Pearson International Airport saw several Sunwing Airlines flights grounded on Wednesday as the airline cited weather disruptions, crew shortages, and limited hotel availability as reasons for the cancellations.
According to a travel advisory issued by Sunwing, the decision was made to prioritize returning stranded passengers from vacation destinations back to Canada.
Sunwing assured affected passengers that they will receive a full refund within 21 business days. Customers booked through Sunwing Vacations for flights scheduled between February 13 and 19—who experienced delays of more than 24 hours—have been given options to:
- Rebook on rescheduled flights,
- Make a one-time change to their departure date, or
- Cancel their trip altogether.
- At Pearson Airport, departure boards showed 30 scheduled Sunwing flights for the day, of which 14 were canceled and three others were delayed.
With ongoing operational challenges, travelers are advised to check their flight status and plan accordingly.
