✈️ TRAVEL NIGHTMARE CONTINUES AFTER BLIZZARD The snow may have stopped, but the chaos is far from over. More than 10,000 U.S. flights were canceled from Sunday through Tuesday — including over 2,000 cancellations on Tuesday alone. Major disruption continues across the NYC-area airports and Boston, leaving thousands stranded. Airlines warn the backlog could take days — possibly up to a full week — to fully untangle. Here’s why: 🔹 Aircraft are scattered across the country and can’t return until snow-clogged ramps and taxiways are fully cleared. 🔹 Thousands of pilots and flight attendants are out of position and timing out under federal work-hour limits. 🔹 Flights were already packed due to winter break travel, leaving little room to rebook canceled passengers — many now facing 48–72 hour waits for confirmed seats. At JFK and Newark, subfreezing temperatures have slowed de-icing operations, nearly doubling aircraft turnaround times. Even with sunshine returning, delays continue to pile up. Major airlines have issued flexible rebooking waivers, but with another system expected midweek, a full return to normal remains uncertain.
