Flight cancellations, delays and long lineups have 53% of Canadian respondents concerned about airport travel.
A wide-ranging survey by Leger asked Canadians and Americans about issues including travel plans, airport delays and inflation.
The outlook was similarly bleak south of the border, where 64 per cent said the U.S. is in a recession, while 19 per cent said they didn’t know. But only 66 per cent of Americans feel prices will continue going up, and 16 per cent said things are starting to get better. A similarly small proportion, four per cent, said they weren’t aware of long lineups and delays in getting passports — likely evidence of how prominent both issues have been in the news in recent months.
More than half of Canadians who took the survey said they plan to travel within their own province, and another 28 per cent said they will travel within Canada. Just over a quarter said they’ll be heading abroad, with 16 per cent of travellers going to the U.S. There seems to be general agreement about what the problem is, with 68 per cent of Canadians and 54 per cent of Americans saying they think staffing shortages are to blame.
