THUNDER BAY, ON – The weather across Northwestern Ontario has been improving and the winter storm advisory has been lifted.
Wasaya Airways report, “Yesterday, the majority of flights in Wasaya Airways network were operating. Only flights were delayed into Summer Beaver, Kingfisher Lake, Wunnumin Lake, Lansdowne House and Fort Hope due to poor visibility in blizzard conditions and poor runway conditions yesterday”.
The company says, “Wasaya Airways managed to transport 60% of guests by the end of yesterday and should see all remaining delayed guests reach their destinations today. Delayed cargo and baggage will also be sent over the new few days and we expect to have everything delivered by the weekend.
