Shaniqua and Timothy Sealey, along with their three children and Shaniqua's mother, planned to spend their Fourth of July in Montego Bay, Jamaica, traveling from Columbus, Ohio.

We needed some free time to rest and just relax. We've been working hard all year, so we just wanted to spend some time with our family, Shaniqua said.

Their trip, booked through Southwest Airlines, was canceled Tuesday because of Hurricane Beryl. Their stay at the resort was also cancelled, leaving the family devastated.

The Sealeys rearranged their plans, choosing to explore Central Florida, visiting SeaWorld and Clearwater Beach.

They were destroyed. We were so sad. The kids were extremely excited to go, but then, as soon as we had to break the news that we wouldn't be able to make it, they were crushed. Their feelings were so suppressed, Shaniqua said.

With a flight back home booked on Sunday morning, the family missed their 7:10 flight. They are now scheduled on the last flight out, leaving at 10:25

The 13-day travel period starting June 23 saw the MCO forecast a 16% increase in passengers compared to last year. Last Sunday, over 156,000 people passed through the airport.

Another family, Carolyn Rios and Alfredo Pienda, traveled from New York to enjoy the fireworks at Disneys Magic Kingdom.

It was really nice. The fireworks were really great. The way they lit up the castle was just beautiful. It was a great experience, Rios said.

However, their return Delta flight to New York was delayed from an original departure of 7:30 a.m. to 10:16 a.m.

Despite the delay, Rios described their Disney trip as a success.

The Sealeys plan to reschedule their trip to Jamaica soon.
