Travel across North America has become difficult as Winter Storm Devin continues to impact large parts of the United States. The powerful winter system is bringing heavy snowfall, freezing rain, and strong winds to the Midwest and Northeast, creating serious problems for air travel during the busy year-end return period.
Thousands of flights have been delayed or canceled as airlines struggle to manage operations in harsh weather conditions. Passengers are experiencing longer wait times at airports and frequent schedule changes.
Cancun Flights Affected by U.S. Weather
Even destinations with clear skies are feeling the effects. Cancun International Airport (CUN) has reported more than 160 flight disruptions today. Although weather conditions in Mexico remain stable, delays at major U.S. airports have caused aircraft and crew shortages.
Airlines such as American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United Airlines are working to recover schedules, but many travelers may still face delays or overnight rescheduling.
Key Airports Experiencing Heavy Impact
Passengers traveling through major transit hubs should be especially cautious today:
- Chicago O’Hare (ORD): High number of cancellations due to snow and strong winds
- Toronto Pearson (YYZ): Ongoing delays as the storm spreads into Canada Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson (ATL): Knock-on delays caused by grounded inbound flights
Traveler Advisory
Most airlines have issued flexible rebooking options and waived change fees. Travelers are advised to check flight status frequently using airline mobile apps. If a flight is canceled, rebooking online is often faster than waiting at airport counters.
Planning extra time at the airport and staying updated with official airline notifications is strongly recommended.
