Atlanta airport working to limit delays amid ice storm

Hartsfield-Jackson Altanta International Airport is facing significant operational challenges as an ice storm sweeps across the Southeast. While over 300 flights were canceled by Saturday evening, disruptions are expected to skyrocket to approximately 1,000 flights between today and Sunday. Despite the chaos, the terminal remains unusually quiet as travelers proactively utilize free rescheduling options to avoid being stranded. To combat the freeze, crews have deployed 300,000 gallons of liquid brine and nearly 100 tons of sand-salt mix to keep runways clear.
