At Lubbock International Airport, things are getting back on track. There are multiple flights scheduled to take off and land today.We spoke with some passengers who say this delay was frustrating.
"Yes very frustrating. I'm
ready to go home," said Debbie Connor from Indiana.
She came down to visit family in Clovis, New Mexico.
"My son in law had surgery so I came down to help with the baby," said Connor.
Connor says not only was her flight pushed back because of the blizzard, she also had a scare on the way to the airport.
"Roads are really really
bad here in Texas they are way better we come
from Clovis and
it took us quite a while to get here and we did four spins in the middle of
the highway," said Connor.
And Connor was not alone, passenger Jerry Bigham says he's had trouble flying into and out of Lubbock
"I flew in, or tried to
fly into Lubbock last week, last Tuesday when
the fog was bad so our flight was diverted to Midland Odessa and from there we
took a car a rental car back here to Lubbock," said Bigham.
Bigham said this weather has made for a travel nightmare.
"Its always a headache
when your flights are messed up for whatever reason. i mean you cant help the
weather but still a frustration," said Bigham.
The cancellations vary by airline, so be sure to check the airline website www.flylia.com before you head there.
