Air Travelers Scramble To Rebook Flights At LaGuardia Airport Following Historic Ground Stop
Next story: US ground stop lifted after four hours, FOX Weather reports
Getting back into the terminal line did not mean getting a seat on a plane. Reporting from LaGuardia Airport, Caroline Elliott describes travelers whose flights were canceled the previous day and who still do not know when they can leave.
"We were just over the line where people are trying to rebook right now, and it is a lot of stress and a lot of chaos," the FOX News correspondent says in the segment posted by FOX Weather. Some passengers, she reports, spent the night sleeping on terminal floors without airline accommodation or support.
The report has drawn roughly 374,000 views in its first 15 hours, far beyond the channel's usual first-day audience of a few thousand for short uploads. It follows FOX Weather's earlier coverage of the ground stop itself, shifting the focus from the halt to the people trying to recover their journeys.
A separate FOX Weather update carries FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford's expectation of a full recovery by Sunday. Elliott's airport report captures the difficult stretch before that: cancellations continuing at both LaGuardia and JFK, with passengers still seeking new arrangements.
The segment closes with a modest sign of movement. The studio anchor announces that an inbound flight from Atlanta is about to land at LaGuardia.
A civil airport in Queens, New York City, on the shore of Flushing Bay. It is named after former New York mayor Fiorello La Guardia.
