[Bigtime]

From Skyrisecities, what's going on at YYC now:

I figured I'd update this thread regarding the current situation at YYC.

Today WestJet laid off around 6900 workers or roughly 50% of their work force.

KLM chose to keep direct flight from AMS-YYC 3x weekly and cut service to Edmonton and Vancouver

Runway 08/26 has been closed and is now being used to store aircraft. It (as of this afternoon) is holding a AC 77W, 789, and about 6 WS 737's and a 767.

Domestic flights are now being docked at concourse C and D and if need be B, A if only being used for WestJet Encore flights. and parked aircraft and equipment.

Overall the airport is expecting to lose about 5 million pax traffic this year, at a minimum.

British Airways, Eurowings, Edelwiess, Condor and Air Canada (All international) flights are now suspended until mid April

Hanian has suspended their flights from PEK-YYC indefinitely and that route will most likely be dropped entirely when it is said and done.

Westjet has suspended all Trans-border and International flights, they are only operating domestically right now.

Frontier has suspended service to YYC from what I have heard and United, Delta, Alaska and American are reducing capacity drastically.

Sunwing and Air Transat have suspended all operations. Air Transat is also retiring their A310's Early.
