Meanwhile, some passengers are waiting from over 8 hours and some are still stranded with no information about the status of their flight.

Have been delayed for 8 hours on my @united flight. It is now cancelled entirely. Not sure when I will be back in LA or even where I am staying tonight. So many angry customers here and almost no staff anywhere to be seen. Content on my channelbmight be slow next few days.
