This is just the beginning.

Well in January the three airports with data to report in the "medium 4" all had significant January transborder gains:
YOW: +11.3%
YHZ: +14.7%
YEG: +18.2%
April is going to be when things will really start to show up as few people will have cancelled Feb/Mar trips because of the USA gong show.

WS already does a lot of Atlantic flying out west, I expect to see that grow a lot more. YQB will probably see some good domestic gains as well.
Probably a lot more Mexico/sun flying as well.

Ironically YQB is supposed to see significant transborder additions this summer. YHZ too.

Indeed and they're also doing equipment downgauges. For example, the 223 planned for STL-YYZ is back to being a CR9.
