This year's Thanksgiving air travel has finally hit a hitch.
Airlines canceled nearly 2,000 flights on Saturday and another 679 on Sunday, rolling out weather waivers as a potent storm swept through the upper Midwest and Great Lakes. The system brought up to a foot of snow or more to much of the region.
The disturbance — which came after a calm run-up to Thanksgiving — has disrupted the plans of thousands of travelers during the second half of what's expected to be one of the busiest Thanksgiving holiday periods ever for air travel.
