  New Travel Security Measures as of 28 Dec 2009
  As of Dec 28, 2009, changes have been made to airport security screening. Delays are expected and travellers are urged to arrive at least 3 hours prior to the flight.

  Flights from Canada to the United States

  New security measures imposed by Canadian and U.S. government authorities do not permit carry-on bags on flights from Canada to the United States. Until further notice, passengers will be allowed to bring only limited personal items in the cabin, such as:

  a small purse
  a book, magazine or MP3 player
  a diaper bag
  a laptop computer
  a diplomatic or consular bag
  a camera
  a cane or walker, crutches, medication or other special needs item
  a medical device

  To accommodate customers travelling to the U.S., Air Canada is waiving excess baggage charges for checked baggage on a temporary basis for U.S.-bound customers travelling from Canada, thus making it possible for them to check one additional item of baggage over and above their normal checked baggage allowance at no extra charge (provided checked bags are within normal allowable weight and size limits).

  We recommend customers consult Transport Canada (www.tc.gc.ca) guidelines or visit the CATSA  (http://www.catsa-acsta.gc.ca) website for details on permissible carry-on items.

  Let’s hope this is a short term solution!!
