Newark Airport Chaos: Delays, Cancellations, and Passengers Stranded on Planes.
Passengers at Newark International Airport experienced delays and discomfort due to thunderstorms, with one woman reporting that her flight from Copenhagen was forced to sit on the runway without air conditioning for nearly two hours. The hot and stuffy conditions caused one passenger to have a panic attack, and flight crew had to bring over an oxygen tank. The ground stop was lifted after the storms passed.
