Could it be that they're getting everyone out well ahead of time before the president arrives there? Or does he even land at civilian airports?
He's supposed to be going to NY later today, so maybe they're just clearing it out, so it's clear when he arrives?

Yes he lands at civilian airports. I was at Detroit Metro in 95 when Clinton came in and they clear a runway and surround it with police/secret service etc....
We could see a boatload of snipers on rooftops as well.

I would say that NY is not the vacation spot some people had planned.

I would be getting out of town too, and would have been caught in the evac of the airport...

This is getting way out of hand.
