Cleveland Hopkins see delays and cancellations heading in to major winter storm

CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – This weekend is not a good time to fly, and travelers at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport are figuring that out quickly.

Kevin Flynn should be on his way to Aspen to ski the slopes, but his flight was interrupted.

“We were connecting in Chicago and that flight got canceled,” said Flynn.

He was rebooked on a flight four hours later after 2 p.m., but more than just Chicago is seeing delays and cancellations.

Atlanta, Baltimore, Cancun and Dallas are seeing cancelled and delayed flights in and out of Cleveland Hopkins before the big punch of the winter storm has even hit Northeast Ohio.

The National Weather Service says a winter storm warning is in effect from now to Monday.

Southern cities like Dallas are already seeing ice and sleet.

Cheryl Caris is heading to Fort Meyers, Florida for a family vacation but has a connecting flight in Atlanta.

Starting Saturday night an ice storm warning is in effect for most of north Georgia, including metro Atlanta.

Guess how many times Caris has checked her weather app.

“Constantly, Delta keeps informing us,” said Caris.

This is a glimpse into possible delays and cancellations this weekend into Monday.
