Kelowna International Airport is asking travellers to check their flight status, as some flights may be cancelled because of wildfire concerns.
On Tuesday, for example, Air Canada announced that its flights may be impacted due to forest fires.
In an email to Global News, Air Canada said there’s been reduced visibility due to smoke from ongoing wildfires, which has resulted in disruption to its Kelowna flights.
“Customers are able to make changes to their bookings to and from Kelowna without change fees, space permitting, and passengers on affected flights are being rebooked,” said Air Canada.
