Yes. At midnight - and beyond. I hear there were delays after landing of up to 2 hours to get a gate. Hence the long line of aircraft on the taxiways. Craziest thing I've seen there.
All back to normal. I did look at some of the aircraft flight tracks and couldn't see much in flight holding going on. Well done ATC. Pity about the airport authority and the ground shambles.
Take a look at last night's arrivals board and note the STA vs Arrival at Gate times. That probably tells the true story too.

More of the same tonight? Pity I'm off to work today. Otherwise I might have sat down with some popcorn and watch. Hmmm. Sad - I know. I'll delete this thread later. It was just an insight to the folks in other areas.
