Description
Travelers are advised to check in with their airline Wednesday morning as flight delays and cancellations linger at Tampa International Airport.
Bad weather and failing technology were cited as factors that led to cascading issues across the country on Tuesday, according to The Associated Press. The Federal Aviation Administration was said to have paused operations for some time Sunday in the Washington, D.C., area.
And a line of severe storms led to several issues at major East Coast hubs Monday night. Back home in Tampa Bay, the airport is reporting at least 41 delays and 17 cancellations on its real-time tracker.
The flight-tracking website FlightAware shows at least 9,559 delays and 1,059 cancellations early Wednesday morning. Airports most affected include Newark Liberty International Airport, O'Hare International Airport and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
