August 3rd
Statement From Air Canada

Air Canada and Air Canada Jazz advise that flight operations at Toronto's Pearson International Airport are resuming this morning following the closure of the airport for much of yesterday due to an incident involving an Air France aircraft, as well as severe thunderstorm activity in the Toronto area that caused ground operation stoppages.

Air Canada is working to resume normal operations as quickly as possible. As aircraft are repositioned to operate today's schedule, some delays and a limited number of cancellations to and from Toronto are expected. Customers with flights scheduled to and from Toronto are strongly advised to check on the status of their flight prior to proceeding to the airport by consulting aircanada.com (we have noticed Air Canada's website to be experiencing heavy load issues and website performance is spotty, so try numerous times if you are not able to connect right away), or by calling Air Canada's automated flight information system at 1-888-422-7533, or by using a web-enhanced cell phone.

Customers with flights affected by yesterday's operational disruptions are requested not to present themselves at the airport without a confirmed reservation on an alternate flight. Customers wishing to make alternative travel arrangements can do so without penalty, space permitting, through Air Canada Reservations at 1-888-247-2262; TTY: 1-800-361-8071.

The following flights are cancelled for August 3, 2005:
002, 094, 095, 104, 108, 114, 116, 122, 136, 146, 166, 185, 190, 201, 235, 252, 270, 292, 294, 295, 313, 346, 347, 355, 379, 487, 515, 516, 542, 568, 569, 589, 603, 605, 607, 701, 792, 872, 879, 881, 883, 891, 923, 1038, 1061, 1083, 1101, 1174, 1183, 1184, 1239
