Like many, Kelly McCrudden gave up on her weekend plans due to the ground stoppage. About 6:45 p.m. she struggled to download Lyft on her phone to catch a ride back home to Chappaqua. She arrived to Kennedy earlier in the day to catch an American Airlines flight to Nashville for a girl’s trip. The other girls are there, and she told them to not wait up for her.
“We got on our plane and then they made us get off our plane,” McCrudden, 38, said. “I’m just going to go home to my kids.”
