Airlines began waiving change fees for travelers ahead of an approaching nor'easter, as flight disruptions started to rise in Boston and other East Coast cities on Saturday, according to CNBC.
The move allows passengers scheduled to fly through the affected region to change their travel plans without incurring additional costs, a common practice among carriers ahead of significant winter storms.
Flight disruptions were reported to be increasing in Boston specifically, though the broader scope of delays and cancellations across the East Coast was still developing as the storm approached.
Nor'easters are seasonal storm systems that regularly affect the northeastern United States, often bringing heavy precipitation, strong winds and significant disruptions to air travel across major East Coast airports.
Airlines typically monitor storm forecasts closely and issue travel waivers in advance to help manage passenger volumes and reduce the strain on customer service operations once disruptions begin.
Travelers with flights scheduled through the affected period were advised to check with their airlines directly for the latest updates on waivers and any changes to their itineraries.
