waiting tour airlifted out of that area. how is that situation going? >> reporter: i wouldn't say those lines were miles long. i saw the line this morning, it was probably about 300 or 400 yards long. the airport is basically home now to hundreds and hundreds of people. remember, there's no electricity here. there's no running water here. and hundreds of people are having to find wherever they can to go to the lavatory. there's a battle now to get the slots working to the best and most efficient use which is relief. so people have been getting out. but the number of people getting out, compared with the number of people arriving to get out. i would have to say it is not -- it's chaotic, but there's no hint of panic here yet. but people are waiting and waiting and waiting to get out.
