Crews work to keep runways clear at Prince George Airport
Prince George, B.C.- The weather is taking its toll at the Prince George Airport.
Spokesman Todd Doherty says Air Canada has cancelled it’s 12:05 flight from YXS because of the airline’s concern over icing on lower flying aircraft, so the inbound aircraft from Vancouver haven’t arrived. Air Canada also cancelled its 9:44 a.m. flight because of late arrival of aircraft.
“The priority is to keep the runways operational” says Doherty, “And crews are doing that. We did have some delays this morning because of de-icing.”
He advises people check their airline for the latest information, or the Airport’s website for the latest information on flight arrivals and departures, (http://www.pgairport.ca/ )
Prince George, RCMP say drivers in the City are driving according to conditions today “I have noticed people are driving slower” says spokesman Gary Godwin “But people have to be reminded to make sure they allow their vehicles enough time to warm up before they head on to the roads.” He says while people have taken time to clear their windshield of snow, if the vehicle hasn’t had enough time to warm up, that windshield will fog up in no time.
