With rain soaking the Bay Area on Tuesday morning, San Francisco International Airport was dealing with more than 170 delays and multiple cancellations for flights in and out of the airport, according to data from FlightAware.
As of 11:09 a.m., 174 flights were delayed, and four—two from Australian carrier Qantas, one from United and one from Hawaiian—had been canceled.
United Airlines had the most delays with 47, followed by Southwest Airlines at 34, SkyWest with 16, JetBlue with 11 and Delta with 10. More than 90 flights coming into SFO were late, while more than 70 leaving the airport were behind schedule.
The other two major San Francisco Bay Area airports were also dealing with delayed arrivals and departures for flights Tuesday, thanks to rainstorms.
At Oakland International Airport, 22 flights were delayed, all but one from Southwest, and one flight had been canceled. At San Jose’s Mineta International Airport, 25 flights had been delayed by mid-morning.
The Federal Aviation Administration issued a traffic management program early Tuesday for SFO, saying some arriving flights would see delays averaging around 55 minutes due to low ceilings and wind. A similar program around 2 p.m. Monday saw delays averaging more than 90 minutes.
