Young American John Hopkins is still in Bermuda, and has been at the airport since 4:30 a.m. this morning (as instructed by airline representatives), awaiting a flight out.

Hopkins’ Continental flight from Lisbon to Newark Tuesday was diverted to Bermuda when the World Trade Centers in New York City were hit by highjacked airliners.

The airport at Bermuda was evacuated at one point today and flights are in complete disarray.

Hopkins has been told that he may be stuck in Newark for an additional several days even after the flight continues on from Bermuda.

Meanwhile, Red Bull Yamaha WCM team owner Bob MacLean was stranded in London, as was Hopkins’ manager, Doug Gonda.
