"Just bad weather," Todd Weeks from North Carolina said.
Weeks expected to be in Philadelphia by 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, but instead, he was delayed two and a half hours to his final destination.
"Just go with the flow - there's a lot, I mean we could still be on the plane, so I'm thankful we've been here," said Weeks.
Delays started rolling in due to thunderstorms on Saturday afternoon.
As of 9 p.m., there were 284 delays and more than three dozen flights were canceled.

Among those cancellations was a flight to West Palm Beach in Florida.
"There's a crowd of people that have been waiting since like 7 a.m., trying to get to West Palm Beach," said Ange Stout of Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia.
Stout saw the group in passing as she only experienced a short delay with her flight from Chicago, Illinois.
"We left on time and we arrived on time, but there was a delayed flight at our gate, we had to sit on the tarmac," said Stout. "I'm not complaining, I'm still smiling, when I see my luggage I'll be even happier."
The spokesperson for the airport reminded people to check individual airlines for the status of flights and updates.
