More Than 100 Flights Canceled At MSP Airport

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The spring snowstorm has led to the cancellation of more than 100 flights and numerous delays at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

The Federal Aviation Administration says some arrivals have been delayed by close to an hour, while flights departing for Chicago's O'Hare Airport are being delayed by an average of nearly two hours.

Airport spokesman Pat Hogan says snow removal crews are focusing on the two parallel runways, keeping one open while plowing the other.

The airport is urging travelers to check with their airlines on the status of their flights.
