Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is expecting over 35,000 passengers to fly out on Monday, advising travelers to arrive at least 2.5 hours early for domestic flights and three hours early for international flights. They also recommend using the lower roadway level for drop-off services if the upper level is busy.
Nearly 100 flights were canceled at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport due to winter weather affecting airports across the United States, with 54 departing flights and 40 arriving flights affected. Passengers were advised to check with their airlines for flight statuses and to monitor the airport's arrivals and departure information online. The decision to cancel flights is up to the airlines, and the airport reported no ice on the runway early Monday morning.
After being lost for three weeks at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, a dog named Maia belonging to a Delta Air Lines passenger has been found safe and in good health. The 6-year-old dog was discovered hiding near the north cargo facilities and is expected to be reunited with its owner soon. The dog went missing when its owner, Paula Rodriguez, was forced to return home to the Dominican Republic due to visa issues. Despite relentless efforts to locate Maia, it took weeks for the airport officials to find her.
