So, what’s with all the delays? Well, if you’re planning to fly through Orlando Airport, you may need to keep a close eye on your flight status. Severe weather is impacting several parts of the country, including Central Florida.

The Orlando International Airport’s official Twitter/X account posted an important warning for travelers. The alert reads, “Due to weather conditions, airline operations may be impacted — flight/baggage delivery delays may occur. Please check with your airline directly for any updates regarding their operations.”

Additionally, local Orlando news reports show that there is heavy rain, wind, and lightning in the area. If the weather persists, you may see additional flight delays.

According to FlightAware, as of around 4PM on April 3rd, there were 519 flight delays reported at Orlando Airport. 93 flights were canceled, and the majority of the impacted flights came from Southwest Airlines and Spirit Airlines.
