Schiphol cancels 150 flights due to storm

The storm moving over the Netherlands on Wednesday already resulted in 150 canceled flights at Schiphol airport.

Schiphol canceled 75 arrivals and 75 departures. That is around 20 percent of the flights scheduled at the airport today, RTL Nieuws reports. KLM also canceled 104 flights.

Flight delays are also expected, and travelers are advised to check their flight status before leaving for the airport.
