912 flights were canceled and more than 6,000 took off late, and it is not known when air traffic in the country will return to normal • The delays and postponements also caused an impact on takeoffs from Israel and various cancellations


If the lack of manpower and the slow return to normality from the Corona era were not enough, now unusual weather in the US is causing trouble, after it disrupted aviation in the country and caused thousands of flight cancellations and delays.

According to the CNN report, yesterday (Sunday) the United States canceled 912 flights and 6,378 others took off late.

This is the third day in a row that there have been significant delays and cancellations, and it is currently unclear when air traffic in the country will return to normal.

According to the data published in the American media, last Saturday about 650 flights were canceled in the USA and more than 7,000 flights took off with significant delays.

The queues are getting longer.

The delays and cancellations also affected the flights to Israel, when several flights that were supposed to take off from the US and Israel were canceled.

All the airlines in the US are facing the same crisis, with each of them canceling a relatively high number of flights. The most prominent airport in terms of the number of cancellations and delays is Chicago, with 12% of the canceled flights and about 40% of the flights where they were delayed.
