Florida travelers ‘incredibly relieved’ to make it to Boston’s Logan Airport ahead Hurricane Helene

Several passengers who landed at Logan Airport from Orlando, Florida Thursday morning said it was a scramble to get out of the state before the hurricane moved in. Some people said they rearranged their plans early in the morning and they’re glad they did.

You have no idea incredibly, incredibly relieved,” said Amanda Dobbins, passenger.

Some travelers said they were in Orlando for a conference and let out a huge sigh of relief after their flight landed in Boston.

“I’m glad to be back, we weren’t sure we were going to be able to take off this morning,” said Deb Farrington, passenger.

Several people on that flight said they felt like they got out just in time.

“Some colleagues drove home from the meeting and the interstate was backed up a 2 hour ride took over 8 hours,” said Farrington.

One woman said she was up in the middle of the night to make sure her flight didn’t get delayed or cancelled.

“It was intense it was making my heart go but I just kept watching,” said Rose Fitzgerald, passenger.
