YVR projecting busiest summer ever

By

RICHMOND (NEWS 1130) – YVR is preparing for its busiest summer on record.

More than 75,000 passengers are expected to travel through the airport on peak days.

July and August are by far the busiest months in Canadian airports, says Mathieu Larocque with the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority.

“There are a few items passengers don’t realize could be problematic while being screened” explains Larocque. “Before leaving the house, passengers should check all of their carry-on bags for items that are not permitted.”

“Liquids, gels, aerosols, that’s the most common mistakes that passengers will make. It is the greatest cause of delays at checkpoints. It causes thousands of extra minutes of searching.”

To speed up the screening process, he suggests reviewing your airline’s carry-on restrictions and having your security documents ready.
