Bills Scheduled to Depart at 3:30 p.m. ET Amid Delays at Buffalo Airport

The massive snowstorm in Buffalo already caused the NFL to move Sunday’s Bills vs. Browns game to Detroit. The question remains: will the Bills be able to fly out of Western New York to make it to that game?

The Bills are scheduled to leave from Buffalo Niagara International Airport at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday. Whether that is feasible is a fair question. The runways at the airport reopened at 9:25 a.m., the airport announced, after closing at 5:30 a.m. with a reported 25 inches of snow falling on the tarmac by Saturday morning. Even so, flights out of Buffalo have been subject to significant delays and cancellations throughout the day so far.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that “the Bills are working on getting players out of their homes and to the airport” with snow in the area stopped for the moment.

The conditions have already caused 46 cancellations out of Buffalo and numerous other delays. The next flight scheduled to leave on time is at 11:39 a.m. to Washington, D.C., with more flights on in the afternoon as of the time of publication.

Three public Delta flights to Detroit are on the schedule for Saturday. The 6 a.m. flight has been canceled, the 12:06 p.m. flight has been delayed one hour, and a 5:55 p.m. flight is still scheduled to take off on time.

Bills vs. Browns in Detroit is scheduled for a 1 p.m. ET kickoff for Sunday afternoon.
