Wabush Airport has reopened for travel after a four-day closure due to a severe flash-freezing event that created icy runway conditions, leaving many passengers stranded ahead of the holidays. Transport Canada confirmed the airport became operational again at 5:00 p.m. N.T. on Monday, but PAL Airlines warned of potential further disruptions and reduced flight capacities. Passengers expressed frustration over poor communication and the lack of accommodations for those affected by the cancellations. Labrador MP Phillip Earle stated that airport crews are working diligently to restore service and clear the backlog of passengers.
