Canada customs inspection kiosks experience service outage, cause some airport delays

A number of customs inspection kiosks were down on Sunday at some of Canada’s busiest airports causing delays to travellers.

Canada Border Services Agency says the service outage at its primary inspection kiosks is now resolved.

The agency said early Monday morning that travellers may still experience delays for a short period of time.

Some travellers reported that they were stuck on planes for over an hour after landing at Toronto Pearson International Airport. The airport had warned passengers about increased wait times at customs due to service interruption at kiosks in Terminals 1 and 3.

Montreal’s Trudeau International Airport and Calgary International Airport also experienced the outage.
