TAMPA - Local rainy conditions created few problems at Tampa International Airport on Monday as the first line of Tropical Storm Alberto approached the Florida mainland.
Among 189 departures scheduled Monday after 9:30 a.m., just one flight - a Delta Air Lines departure to Boston - was canceled and six other flights were delayed.
Real-time information for flights at Tampa is available on-line at http://www.tampaairport.com/sitemap.html where a link to flight data is shown.
The Federal Aviation Administration’s real-time display showed operations at all major U.S. airports with the exception of San Francisco International were within 15 minutes of schedule.
The FAA shows national airport information at http://www.fly.faa.gov/flyfaa/usmap.jsp
Aiport officials say travelers should call the airlines rather than the airport regarding their flights for the most up-to-date information as the storm continues toward Florida.
