Vancouver International Airport has resumed normal operations after three days of significant flight delays and cancellations. The airport confirmed on Thursday that services are now operating as usual.

Since 3 p.m. on Monday, dozens of flights were delayed and several others canceled due to a shortage of resources and staff at Nav Canada, the country's air traffic control authority.

Nav Canada had been implementing temporary traffic management measures to handle the disruption. Airport officials confirmed today that the issues have now been resolved. Passengers are advised to check their flight status through the airport’s website or directly with their airline.
