As Hurricane Milton wreaked havoc in its path, several airports are now facing the aftermath and assessing the damage caused by the storm. At least three airports in the affected areas have been closed to passengers as officials work to determine the extent of the destruction.
Tampa International Airport, one of the major airports in the region, is currently undergoing inspections to assess the condition of the airfield and facilities. The airport authorities are diligently working to determine when it will be safe to reopen the airport to passengers. A comprehensive inspection of the 3,300-acre campus and its buildings is underway, and a reopening plan is expected to be announced soon.
