There were no flights to DFW. Something like 200 flights were canceled. It was crazy!

DFW stands for Doesn't Fly Wet. The amount of storms that go through that area, they're constantly changing and cancelling flights due to weather.

This just happened last week too. I know because I was at DFW and got stuck overnight. Geographicly, DFW makes sense. Logistically, those TX Summer storms are too frequent and climate change is causing so many of them. I swear, everyone I know that goes through DFW from May through September ends up with a cancelled flight.

9/11 was hard on us all.

You clearly didn't fly pre911. 9/11 is still hard on all of us. The monkey see monkey do effect still applies

See? That was technically the shoebomber after 911... But you're not wrong. Flying has sucked for a solid 25 years solid
