NYC's LaGuardia Airport reopens. Here's the latest on cancellations and delays.
If you're looking to get out of New York City via LaGuardia Airport, you're going to have to wait a while.
Due to the monster snowstorm hammering the Tri-State Area, flights in and out of LaGuardia were halted on Sunday just after 1 p.m. Though the airport did reopen at around 9 p.m., no flights were expected to land or take off until early Monday morning, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
At the time it was closed, more than 90% of LaGuardia's flights had already been canceled.
More than 2,800 flights have been canceled so far at the three major New York City-area airports, including John F. Kennedy International and Newark Liberty International.
According to flight-tracking site FlightAware, airlines across the country have canceled more than 11,000 flights on Sunday. That's the most for a single day since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and more the double the number of U.S. flights that were canceled on Saturday.

The MTA, however, has vowed to continue train, subway and bus service on a weekend schedule through Monday.
