Many Cancelled Flights At Metro Airport

DETROIT (WWJ) -  There are many flights that are being delayed or cancelled at Detroit Metro Airport.The airport's snow removal crews are out in full force, removing snow and ice from the runways, the taxiways, tarmacs, and parking lots.

Even with the heavy snow airport spokesman Mike Conway says the most dangerous places are not at the airport:

"The most dangerous part of your trip is the drive  to and from the airport.You have absolute professionals handling the aircraft and runway clearing and not everyone on I-94 is not necessarily professional, so you want to be very careful driving to and from the airport," Conway warned.

Conway also says several flights into and out of Detroit Metro have been cancelled or delayed, so, check your flight status before going to the airport.

You can do that by going to our website at  CBSDetroit.com

"You want to check the airlines website to made sure the flight is going and is going on time, with a lot of flights coming in delayed you don't want to sit and idle at the curb," says Conway.
