Travelers going through San Diego International Airport experienced more than 100 flight delays for routes in and out of the city, during one of the busiest travel weekends of the year.
Heavy rain and snow in other parts of the country were cited for the 150 flight delays, but there were no reported flight cancellations at the San Diego airport on Thanksgiving Day, according to the airline tracker FlightAware.
Six flights were canceled at the San Diego airport on Wednesday. The average delay for airline passengers at the airport Thursday was estimated to be 36 minutes.
According to the American Automobile Association, about 5.4 million people planned to travel by air for Thanksgiving, about a 2.1% increase from last year. About 460,000 airplane passengers were expected in San Diego between Tuesday and Monday, according to the regional airport authority.
Those planning to travel through the rest of the peak Thanksgiving travel period are encouraged to check their flights status with the airline or by using their flight tracker before arriving at the airport.
