Smoke reports triggered the evacuation of the apron control tower at Toronto Pearson Airport in Ontario on October 21, 2026. The safety procedure halted the tower’s operations temporarily.

The evacuation caused disruptions in flight movements and led to flight delays throughout the day at Canada’s busiest airport in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Travelers experienced schedule disturbances as a result.
