Ground stops at DFW and Dallas Love Field airports Thursday caused hundreds of delays and cancellations. Though things may improve today, wait times may be long.
Holiday travel is busy and stressful enough. Mix some thunderstorms and heavy rain in there and it throws everything out the window. People have rebooked with other airlines, circled over the airport and waited for hours for loved ones. But everyone we’ve happened to talk to has kept their chins up, and said even if they’ve been inconvenienced, it really could’ve been worse.
“It wasn’t bad we just had to go hold in the air for a little while because of the weather. It wasn’t long,” says a traveler at DFW Airport.
Delays could still be possible this morning as airlines try to realign schedules. If you have a flight today, arrive early, stay in touch with your airline and maybe pack extra snacks and make sure your devices are charged.
