deadly winter storm<\/a> that swept across much of the country over the weekend continues to impact air travel.<\/p>\nOn Tuesday, FlightAware.com reported that 143 out of 145 canceled flights at MIA were American Airlines flights. The airline said 25% of their flights across the country are grounded.<\/p>\n
Ar FLL, passengers grew more and more frustrated.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe flight got canceled. I had to rebook, like put a flight for tonight \u2019cause I have work, and then that gets delayed actually two and a half hours,\u201d said a traveler..<\/p>\n
Airlines across the U.S. keep trying to catch up and get back to normal, as travel interruptions continue to pose an obstacle to beleaguered travelers.<\/p>\n
Siena was trying to fly home to Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy flight got delayed till 11:40 tonight, and it was delayed like that for like an hour, and then, at like 6:30, an hour before I boarded, it got switched back on time, so I left for the airport, got here, but obviously, I\u2019m not going to make it in time,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Over at MIA, passengers were equally frustrated.<\/p>\n
\u201cI came here for a visit, a vacation, and I got stuck here with the storm,\u201d said a traveler.<\/p>\n
These passengers said they just want to get home, regardless of the wintry conditions waiting for them.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019d love to just be at home, snuggling up in our 40-degree cold weather, 30-degree cold weather. It\u2019s not that bad,\u201d said Barrera.<\/p>\n
MIA officials told 7News that several major airlines contacted them to keep their planes from cities like New York and Dallas at this airport due to the warm weather, until the conditions up north improve.<\/p>\n
Officials expect the storm-related delays and cancellations to continue for at least the next two days.<\/p>\n
