The middle of February means one thing to students across the region: winter break.

Hancock International Airport is expecting busy traffic the next few days, with families jetting off for some mid-winter R & R.

In addition to more people, passengers will also be dealing with construction inside the terminal.

As a result, passengers are encouraged to arrive at least two hours before their scheduled departure time.

Construction is underway at the center of the terminal, which is closed off to passengers, who are rerouted to either Terminal A or Terminal B.
