Someone mentioned taking a long time to get through YYJ's line. It depends how many other flights are leaving that AM too. 1 hour is probably too low nowadays
.
Sure hope Canada follows suit on dropping the poke checks (and mandatory masks) on planes. Liberals just lalala not listening to anyone, including their own health officer Tam.
That was me, approx 50 minutes to get through security but there were a lot of flights around that time, many on widebodies.
Having said that, 6am is the first flight of the day. There are 4 flights between 6-7, 3 of which are the lower capacity Q400s, and then nothing until 7:45am. So it will probably be a little better than my experience.
If it were me in this case I would consider aiming to arrive 90 minutes prior to arrival with checked bags, or 75 minutes prior to arrival if already checked in and you can go right to security. Probably won't need all that time, but it allows a buffer just in case.
