DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) ? The winter weather that brought snow and ice to North Texas has also brought delays to travelers at DFW International Airport.
According to airport officials, over 1,000 passengers woke up Wednesday morning after spending the night inside airport terminals. DFW personnel provided cots, blankets, toiletry kits and other comforts for overnight passengers.
The storm, which brought up to six inches of snow to some parts of North Texas, is still causing airport delays on Wednesday morning at the world?s eighth-busiest based on passenger traffic.
Though a winter weather warning expired at 9 a.m. this morning, at least 40 departing flights have already been cancelled.
According to Kent Powell with American Airlines, the airline is fully functional this morning at DFW, though some flights continue to experience delays. Extra time is required to de-ice planes and navigate icy ramps.
Travelers on Wednesday are encouraged to check their flight?s status online before heading to the airport. All roadways leading to and from the airport are clear and ready for traffic.
