VANCOUVER — The Vancouver International Airport is warning travellers to arrive early to avoid expected traffic delays. The airport says in a statement that it’s expecting the annual Boxing Day sale at a nearby outlet shopping centre to create heavy congestion. It encourages pre-booking parking spots in the airport’s lots, and warns the long-term parking lot will be most affected by delays due to proximity to the mall. Boxing Day is already one of the busiest travel days of the year and upwards of 90,000 people could be travelling through the terminal. The airport also reminds travellers to confirm flight reservations and determine baggage specifications in advance, while avoiding packing liquids, gels and other prohibited items in carry-ons.
