Adverse weather thrashing Sydney has halted flights at the airport, with warnings of major delays, ABC News reports.
Strong winds have grounded flights, causing waits around the country, thanks to a major storm front pelting the east coast of Australia.
Some flights are still departing while others have been pushed back hours.
Poor visibility has led air traffic controllers to prioritise landing aircraft over those taking off, creating a backlog of planes on the tarmac.
People are advised to check their flight’s status before heading to the airport.
