40 Funny Tweets About The FAA Ground Stop That Put Everyone’s Weekend Plans On Hold
An airport is an expensive place to find out you’re spending the night in the same city you woke up in.
Friday’s nationwide FAA ground stop put travel plans on hold across the country. It was lifted Friday evening, but delays and cancellations have continued into Saturday. Unfortunately, “flights can resume” and “your flight is leaving” are two very different announcements.
Meanwhile, people on Twitter spent the disruption doing what they do best: making jokes while refreshing a screen. These funny reactions cover the airport chaos, the suddenly valuable seats at Chili’s, and a week when technology seemed determined to give everyone something else to complain about.
