Severe weather causes travel chaos at major US airports.
TL;DR
Travelers at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport faced long lines, cancellations, and delays due to a winter storm that canceled or delayed nearly 200 departing flights. The airport was short-staffed, leading to issues at security, and only one checkpoint was open for a while. Sun Country Airlines apologized for the delays and cancelations and said they were working hard to resume operations for their customers. As of Saturday, it's been one of the top three snowiest winters of all time in the metro area.
