Passengers at Toronto Pearson International Airport continue to experience longer than normal check-in times at Terminal 3 due to technical issues with baggage processing.

The issue was first reported Tuesday evening and was briefly resolved before encountering troubles again.

Airport officials are warning passengers to expect delays for certain departures and to check with their airline to confirm the status of flights.

The airport check-in area was littered with rows of baggage Wednesday morning.
