Santa and his reindeer are cleared to Fly in Canadian airspace

Santa’s sleigh has been cleared for travel in Canadian airspace, the federal government announced on Monday just ahead of the busy holiday season.

In a press release Monday, Minister of Transport and Internal Trade Anita Anand said she engaged with her elves and reviewed several key documents including Santa’s flight plan.

Children can track Santa and his reindeer on the North American Aerospace Defense Command’s website on Dec. 24, featuring a holiday countdown, games, music and more. This marks the 69th year that Norad has tracked Santa and his crew.

Each year, at least 100,000 kids call Norad to inquire about Santa’s location. Millions more follow online in nine languages, from English to Japanese.

Trackers can also call 1-877-HI-NORAD to ask live operators about Santa’s location from 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. ET.
