Nearly 100 Delta Connection flights have been cancelled as thunderstorms continue to impact much of the east coast - especially at Boston Logan International airport, where Delta has a significant presence. Storms across the Southeast have also impacted much of Florida with extended Air Traffic Control delays and a limited number of diversions and cancellations.

Delta's team of meteorologists continue to monitor and update forecasts as the storm progresses. Other teams in the Operations and Customer Center may make further adjustments to flight schedules as operational and weather conditions dictate.

weather waiver  remains in place for ten cities in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast today for customers to make a one-time change to their travel itinerary without incurring a fee.

As always, customers are encouraged to check their flight status on Delta.com or the Fly Delta Mobile App. Customers can also get updates sent directly to their mobile device or by email with One-Time Flight Notification.
