(Reuters) – Tampa, one of the major Florida airports temporarily closed by Hurricane Ian, will reopen Friday at 10 a.m. ET (1400 GMT) after it did not suffer any serious damage, the airport said.
Airlines canceled 2,000 U.S. flights Thursday and nearly 2,200 Wednesday and have canceled 1,042 flights for Friday, according to Flightaware.
Orlando Airport said it expects to reopen at some point Friday but “a damage assessment is taking place” and all roads leading to the airport remain closed due to flooding.
