Mexico City International Airport had to suspend flights for three and a half hours due to bad weather in Mexico City and the surrounding region. Jorge Andres Gomez, a spokesperson for the airport, said that they experienced heavy rainfall and hail that left the runways soaked with water.
The runways were closed from 4:43 pm local time and flights began to land again at 8:20 pm, according to witnesses. A few minutes after the first flight landed, the first flight took off from the airport. However, dozens of flights were disrupted, being diverted to other airports, cancelled, or delayed.
