Security costs squeeze profits for air travel in Canada
The Canadian Finance Department says air security costs exceed revenues from air passengers. Fees have fallen since 2002 and show a $375 million surplus since April 2002, but deficits this year and next will shrink the cushion to about $165 million, likely draining further as expenses rise. Current fees are 10 dollars for domestic round trips, 8.50 for cross border trips, and 17 dollars for international travel.
