· Airline disruptions

Those planning to travel by air to or from this destination should check with their
airline or travel agent immediately to reconfirm travel arrangements. If your flight
has been canceled, request the next available flight. Traffic on roadways leading to
airports may be considerably slower than normal. Airports are likely to become very
crowded, and lines will be long. Allow a good measure of extra time to get to the
airport, check in and go through security.
