Adam Thomas reportingDelta Air Lines has canceled 275 flights across the country today for emergency inspections. But the effect at Salt Lake International is expected to be limited.

Delta has grounded MD-88s to inspect the wiring, but none of those jets is used at Salt Lake International. A Delta spokesperson says the company uses MD-90s in Salt Lake instead, because of the altitude.

But, if you're flying Delta and connecting back east -- in Atlanta or Cincinnati, for example -- expect delays there.
