Brrr!

• Winter Storm Jayden is expected dump heavy snow across the Midwest and Northeast.
• Even the Deep South will get some snow.
• In preparation, Delta, United, American, and other airlines are letting passengers traveling this week rebook their tickets for free.

The National Weather Service has issued winter storm warnings and watches across much of the Midwest, Deep South, and Northeast.

Those in cities including Chicago, Atlanta, and Detroit should prepare for Winter Storm Jayden, which is expected to dump heavy snows this week. That's in addition to what the NWS referred to as a "very dangerous and life-threatening arctic air mass" sweeping the region.

It's bad news for those with travel plans this week. More than 1,000 flights out of Chicago's two airports have been cancelled as of 4 p.m. Monday, according to the Chicago Department of Aviation. Flights arriving to O'Hare were delayed by 80 minutes on average, and departing flights by an average of 31 minutes.

Many airlines are offering vouchers in preparation.

Delta

Over the weekend, Delta issued a weather waiver for those traveling on Jan. 27 and 28 through 16 Midwestern airports, including Chicago's O'Hare and Midway International Airports and Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

Delta said those who have travel plans involving those 16 airports can make a one-time change to their travel plans with no fee. You can see the full list here.

United

United is offering travel vouchers for those traveling to airlines across the Eastern US on January 27-February 1. The dates are different for each city, but the latest travel can be booked is February 4.

United provides more information here.

JetBlue

Those flying traveling on January 27 or 28 through Chicago or Minneapolis-Saint Paul must reschedule their flights on a date no later than January 30. JetBlue's travel alert page explains how.

Southwest

Flights to airports in cities like Chicago, Atlanta, New York LaGuardia, and more are all eligible to be rebooked for free. Winter Storm Jayden is expected to hit those regions at different days throughout this week, so eligibility for rebooking is different for each city.

The same stipulation applies for the Upper Midwest for flights booked on January 27 or 28. Tickets have to be changed to somewhere from January 26 to February 1. For Chicago only, a trip booked January 27 to 30 can be changed in the date range of January 25 and February 3.
