Original Toronto Star caption: Quiet counters: Air Canada counters at Pearson International Airport's Terminal 2 are deserted as the strike-lockout drags on. Delays and frustration are predicted for Christmas-time travellers seeking seats on other airlines. There's only so much you can do, says a spokesman for Canadian Airlines International, which is taking many reservations.
