WATCH: A Delta Air Lines flight was delayed in Cancun on Thursday after a swarm of bees settled on the 737's wing. The issue was soon resolved with some forward speed on takeoff!

We are en route to IAH from TUL and we are bumpy all the way. Flight crew told us ser belts fastened for next 53 minutes after we had a delay in TUL due to our storm .
@Girlpatriot1974 What interview manual did anyone think this is professionally "okay" and acceptable? I have had Teams and Zoom interviews and I dressed from head to toe professionally as you never know if you drop a pen or something and you have to get up live on camera.Always be professional.
Some filters don’t change your face; they show what was already watching you.
A group of friends discovered a viral phone filter that appears harmless at first until it begins revealing figures invisible to the naked eye.
The Greek Evzone never bows his head. The only moment he lowers his head and his weapon is on Good Friday, when the Epitaphios passes in front of him. The Evzone mourns.
Last week we explained what EES is and why it matters for your summer trip. Here is what is actually happening on the ground right now.
CDG's automated e-gates still cannot process US passports. As of this week, every American arriving in Paris is being directed into manual lanes regardless of whether they have already registered with EES. The gates are not expected to be fully compatible until the end of March at the earliest.
Lisbon hit seven-hour queues earlier this year and suspended the system entirely. Portugal just launched a pre-registration app this week specifically because the delays became indefensible. That is not a system running smoothly.
And it is about to get more serious. April 10 is when EES becomes fully mandatory across all 29 Schengen countries. Right now the system is running at partial volume. After April 10 it applies to every eligible traveler at every border crossing. IATA, ACI Europe, and Airlines for Europe have warned the European Commission that summer peak queues could hit four hours or more at CDG, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, and Barcelona. Traffic at European airports doubles in July and August. The system is already breaking at reduced volume.
What makes this harder to plan around: after April 10, individual member states can choose to temporarily pause EES checks to manage congestion. Some airports will. Others will not. Nobody knows in advance which is which. The EU Commission's official position is that EES is running well. IATA, ACI Europe, and Airlines for Europe jointly disagree. The experience this summer will be inconsistent airport to airport.
Two things worth knowing before you book.
Ireland and Cyprus are fully exempt from EES. Flying into Dublin or Larnaca bypasses the system entirely.
There is a free app called Travel to Europe on iOS and Android. Pre-register your passport details before you arrive. It does not eliminate border checks but it cuts your processing time at airports where it is active. Check if your entry airport supports it before you travel.
