Currently at Logan waiting for a flight home. Luckily, the plane we are waiting for made it to its first stop and will be heading my way in an hour.

On the bright side, there was no one in the security line because they were all waiting to talk to an agent.

Made it to ATL 8 hours late and with a cancelled connection home.

Worse yet, plane WiFi was out and lost out on opportunities to rebook.

Ended up with a late SW flight but will take a stab at stand by later this afternoon.

Best case 6pm. Worst case 930pm.

3 hour drive still on tap, loving my career choice today!

Pretty long flight ahead of you. Airports there also screwed up?

My daughter was going with my parents from LFT to ATL and then on to BUF today. I finally see the inbound coming from atl on the radar. However, they canceled LFT to ATL until tomorrow am and haven’t forwarded them on to BUF. It seems like no delta flights are scheduled from LFT for the rest of the day. Suspiciously I see none tomorrow either. Very strange. Wondering if they should be trying something else but hate to have them drive to IAH or MSY for more problems.

I'd definitely get out of LFT and go to a larger airport with more connection options, although if they cancelled a lot of flights already then rebooking options are going to be slim. I'd probably do MSY depending on what's available. Have they tried rebooking in the app?

Oh yes I’ve been in the app and on the website bc traffic is so bad app wasn’t working well. Unfortunately they are all booked on 3 different confirmation codes so rebooking will be complicated.

A flight out of Logan just took off with most everyone getting on the plane with a hand-written boarding pass.

My flight just got bumped another hour...still waiting on our plane to leave its current location.

We are enroute to LAX from Tokyo, one of the few that made it out tonight.Most of the pilots and flight attendants had run out of duty day and no longer legal to work their trips as scheduled. We were in that same situation heading to ATL but were rerouted to the shorter LAX flight to keep us legal where they’ll change crews and continue on to ATL.

According to Flightaware, 2,697 (and growing) flights within, into or out of the US have been cancelled today.

Previous three days were 415, 1,068, 929.

Today is about 3 times worse than a 'bad' day and 6 times worse than a 'good' day.

25% of all Delta flights worldwide (933 flights) canceled.
26% of all flights originating in ATL (329) canceled.
25% of all flights destined for ATL (326) canceled.

I’ve got a United flight to the Oregon coast for a golf trip Tuesday. First guys trip since before kids. Really hoping this doesn’t screw us up
