Southwest spokeswoman Whitney Eichinger (EYEK'-en-jer) says the airline halted all flights at its Dallas hub but hopes to resume operations later Tuesday morning. She had no specific number of flights canceled but says Dallas-based Southwest usually has 125 daily nonstop departures from Love Field.
American Airlines spokeswoman Mary Frances Fagan says the carrier canceled 231 flights Tuesday at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. She says American Eagle canceled 90 flights.
DFW airport remains open. Spokesman David Magana says carriers worked to de-ice their planes.
