The Federal Aviation Administration says flights to Florida are facing delays
The day after Christmas showed a lot of red on the flight boards at Orlando International Airport. According to FlightAware.com, there were eight canceled flights Tuesday evening, and more than 400 planes were running late to Orlando International Airport. “Morning, but that's what it is,” passenger Lynsey Dalrymple said. “Even when departing, there was heavy traffic getting to the airport, a lot of traffic going through the airport. It's like we were getting here maybe three to four hours early just so we could make sure we catch our flight on time,” the passenger said. LaKisha Forbes said. Most of the parking lots were full. “So I had to drive 20 minutes to leave the car, then try to get back, and then our flight was delayed twice,” Forbes said. The Federal Aviation Administration established a delay program due to air traffic congestion. With the exception of Jacksonville, flights to Florida were made two hours late. “I wouldn't say they're disappointed, but they're tired because they've been awake for a while,” said Joe Cammett, who was waiting for his brother to arrive. One man waited longer than expected for his brother and sister-in-law to come from the West Coast. “It's no big deal. You know, he hasn't been to Florida in 23 years. So they're excited for him to come and we're excited to have him,” Cammett said.
