What To Do If You Are Flying Today

  • Check your flight status directly with your airline before leaving home. Do not rely on the departure time on your ticket.
  • Know your rebooking options. If your airline has issued a travel waiver, you can usually change your flight for free through their app or website.
  • Get to the airport early if there are delays. Security lines can back up when flights are disrupted.
  • Have a backup plan. Know the next available flight on your airline, and consider nearby airports if your flight gets canceled.

How We Track Disruptions

We monitor FAA advisories, airline operations updates, and rolling delay data for the New York area. The disruption status here reflects the latest information across Newark Liberty International Airport, John F. Kennedy International Airport, and LaGuardia Airport. If a storm or runway closure hits one airport, the others often feel it within hours.

When conditions stabilize, the network can recover quickly. If you are flexible, flights later in the day or the next morning tend to clear first.
