FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — For a third day in a row, travel plans are being disrupted across the U.S.
On Sunday, the FlightAware website reported that more than 2,200 flights were canceled and more than 7,500 were delayed.
Travelers at Fresno Yosemite Airport say they didn’t experience delays or cancellations.
But the flight interference still has Fresno travel agents concerned.
Cathyrn Doty, a Not Your Evil Stepmother’s Vacation Planner, says “That is one of the first things that I do every morning is, I am monitoring the cancellations because I do have clients that are traveling and flying so I wanna make sure what does today look like, do I need to start being on the phone, making changes, being prepared for them?”
As millions of Americans are expected to take to the skies for the Thanksgiving holiday, AAA says it’s monitoring traveler expectations.
“We’re predicting Tuesday and Wednesday and then the following Sunday of Thanksgiving week are going to be the peak travel times,” says AAA spokesman Doug Johnson.
Travel experts say that as the government shutdown continues, it’s going to be important to roll with delays and cancellations.
It could also be helpful to be flexible with sudden flight changes.
