It’s now been 2 weeks straight that flights going into or coming out of Charlotte were delayed. Nearly 600 flights were delayed at Charlotte Douglas International Airport this past Saturday and that number was the most of any airport in the United States this year. Another 50% of flights were canceled at the same airport.
Delays and cancellations have led to increased length in lines, and frustrated passengers. Many passengers have had to deal with longer wait times to pick up luggage. Across the country, more than 6,000 flights have been delayed on Saturday. It’s the latest rash of delays in a summer filled with long lines and frustrated passengers.
