Public Announcements

Tropical Storm Fay

Transportation • Hillsborough, FL

Posted: August 19, 2008

Airlines canceled 51 departures and 48 arrivals today at Tampa International Airport as they repositioned aircraft in anticipation of where Tropical Storm Faye would interfere with operations.

St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport remained open when Pinellas County canceled its mandatory evacuation for low-lying areas, but Allegiant Air canceled all flights today. Allegiant is the only major carrier at the airport.

Officials said passengers should call airlines – not the airports – for the latest information on schedule changes.

The Tampa cancellations affected more than two dozen destinations.

The schedules of eight airlines at Tampa International were not affected by cancellations.
