The Travel Lessons We Learned From Winter Storms

Two massive winter storms have swept the country, upsetting air travel nationwide. Winter Storm Fern, which brought snow, sleet and ice to a wide swath across the country, brought airports to a standstill. And the Winter Storm Hernando created chaos throughout the Northeast.

According to Afar, Fern caused 12,610 flight cancellations (including completely shutting down all departures and arrivals from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport – DCA) and 22,310 delays during the event. It took several days for the air travel to normalize air traffic.
