Delay. Airport overflowing. Passengers waiting. Watching. Anxious. Resigned. Complaining. Shouting.
Weary mom holds one child and corrals the others. Trying to get home before snow.
Couple returning from vacation. Using up all that relaxation in one day of flight cancellations.
I sit beside a man from Newark. Started his day long before dawn. Now it’s late afternoon and his flight diverted from Pensacola to this small airport in Alabama.
He’s trying to find another way to reach his destination. But rental cars are long gone.
