DFW Delay (9/12)?
On the FAA page there is a mention of a delay:
General Departure Delays: Due to OTHER:Bird Strike, traffic is experiencing Gate Hold and Taxi delays between 16 minutes and 30 minutes in length and increasing.
Anyone actually there and know any details?
My GF's is flying out of BWI this afternoon and her plane is coming from DFW so I was just trying to get an idea of the problem. My googling hadn't found anything other than the FAA message. The "increasing" part is the concerning part.
Thanks.
