After delays in Newark reroute his trip, Tom finds himself sprinting through DTW, dealing with valet bag failures, and navigating late-night hotel decisions—at a place that may or may not have had a dead flight attendant.We break down the chaos at Newark Liberty Airport, including ongoing runway closures, staffing walkouts at PHL Center, and critical radar and communication losses.
