Of those flights, most were again made by JetBlue, which canceled 38 flights and delayed 50 others, the website reported. Overall, 31 canceled flights, and 43 delayed flights originated at Logan while 19 canceled, and 44 delayed had Boston as the destination airport.

In a statement to Boston.com on Sunday, JetBlue blamed “severe weather in the southeast and multiple air traffic control delay programs” for the delays and cancellations.

“We have unfortunately had to cancel flights this weekend, and today’s cancellations will help us reset our operation and safely move our crews and aircraft back in to position,” the airline said at the time. “We apologize to our customers for the inconvenience and we are working to get them on their way as quickly as possible.”
