COVID delays holiday travel for thousands: "Omicron is the Grinch that stole Christmas"
CBSN
It was a difficult Christmas weekend for thousands of Americans because of the latest COVID surge.
Twice as many people traveled for Christmas this year compared to last year, reports correspondent Jonathan Vigliotti, with many people arriving at homes impacted by COVID. And some people couldn't even get home at all; many travelers found themselves on epic and exhausting journeys after infections among pilots, crew and airline staff caused last-minute flight changes.
From Friday to Sunday, more than 3,000 flights were canceled across the U.S. Hundreds more were canceled Monday morning.
