A flood of anger washed over Ezeiza International Airport in Buenos Aires as thousands of passengers were stranded when all international flights were cancelled.
A baggage handlers' strike and a walk-out by ticket counter workers angered passengers that began to throw objects at Aerolineas Argentinas’ employees. Passengers then stormed the offices of the national carrier and demanded that staff resolve the situation.
"There's no one from the company, no one is showing their face or telling us when we're going to fly. We're stranded with children and the elderly," said one passenger who was supposed to be on her way to Venezuela.
The delays are expected to continue for the national carrier of Argentina.
Let's just hope those passengers are not on any United flights during a snow storm in Chicago.
