International passengers at the T1 terminal are experiencing delays of up to 30 minutes, mostly in arrivals, a Sydney Airport spokesman told AAP on Saturday morning.Domestic passengers at the airport's T2 terminal are being delayed between 90 minutes to two hours for both arrivals and departures, the spokesman said.

A Qantas spokeswoman said passengers on cancelled flights to Canberra and Melbourne have been transferred to other services.Saturday flights on regional carrier Rex are also delayed to and from towns including Cooma, Armidale, Narrandera, Griffith, Albury, Orange, Merimbula, Newcastle, Parkes, Wagga Wagga and Broken Hill."Reduced visibility in fog will make road conditions dangerous during Saturday in all suburbs. Motorists are advised to take extreme care," it said.
