The summer travel season is coming to a close with crowded airports, but few delays or cancelations, as of Monday morning.
Labor Day is typically the last chance for families to get away before the grind of the school year sets in.
"I figured, after Friday, I saw so many people at the airport at that particular time. People might be staying a day extra, it might be bad tomorrow. I didn't expect it to be too busy today," traveler Shirley Weems said. Airport officials even warned of a 7% passenger increase at O'Hare and a 1% increase at Midway, and advised passengers to come early to avoid any travel headaches.
