5:57Now PlayingThe holiday travel nightmare still isn't over for many looking to get home or to their planned destination, especially if they are traveling on Southwest Airlines out of BWI, DCA, or IAD.
Southwest canceled 2,909 flights nationwide on Monday amid a winter storm continuing to impact portions of the country, according to flight tracking website FlightAware. 272 were canceled at Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI), 65 at Washington-Reagan National Airport and 10 at Washington-Dulles International Airport. As of 9am Tuesday morning, Southwest has canceled 211 at BWI, 65 at DCA and 8 at IAD - and over 2,500 canceled nationwide.
FOX 5's Maureen Umeh drove to BWI to talk with travelers trying to get on their way. She encountered people who are planning to cancel their trips altogether due to the chaos. Maureen talked to Devin Durham, a traveler at BWI who is trying to get on an 18-day cruise out of Fort Lauderdale - and has been working with friends to find other flights on other airlines. He got to the airport early and once he got past security, learned his flight was canceled and was offered a voucher instead of a fast rebooking. He says it is the "worst he's ever seen it."
