Leading indicator of international arrivals to Canada, July 2021
July saw the number of international arrivals to Canada by land and air increase from last year but remain well below the pre-pandemic levels of 2019. Some of the increase in the leading indicator of arrivals by air was due to the inclusion of Toronto/Pearson Terminal 1 in this count for the first time.
Weekly transborder aircraft movements trending upward
The number of flights between Canada and the United States recorded as transborder aircraft movements (i.e., takeoffs and landings), were severely reduced by COVID-19 restrictions first imposed back in March 2020. Major Canadian airlines reduced the number of international flights in late March 2020 and continued operating on a restricted schedule for most of the year. Despite steady growth for the rest of 2020, transborder movements remained historically low.
