The effects of Friday’s nationwide FAA ground stop were still being felt at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport on Saturday, Nov. 14. Savannah resident Devin Eschbach was waiting for luggage coming from Atlanta and estimated it might arrive on a later flight in about an hour and a half.
Eschbach had spent the night at Atlanta’s airport and said she slept on the floor.
A second traveler said she would have to wait until Monday to fly home to California. She did not want to appear on camera.
Flight delays and cancellations continued as airlines worked to rebuild schedules and reposition crews. American Airlines said additional disruptions were expected while it worked to restore its operation. The airline also offered customers more flexibility to change travel plans or request a refund.
