Needless to say, so many flights have diverted and the airport has been shut down for so many hours that the cancellations will stack up and stretch into tomorrow and likely Friday before WestJet will recover all the planes and crews out of position.
Check your flight status before even considering driving to the airport for the next 72 hours.
Edit: not just WestJet. Everybody. Amerian, United and Delta all diverted to Seattle, Delta's Salt Lake flight just landed in Lethbridge.
Between Vancouver and Seattle there are thousands of Calgary-destined passengers just sitting around right now, but no plane from anywhere in the western US or Canada is allowed to even depart for Calgary for another 40 min.
