"People are sleeping on the floor in south terminal," he said, adding it was an "utter shambles."
shambles /ʃˈæmblz/ が気になりました。『ジーニアス英和辞典』で調べると「大混乱の場,修羅場」とありました。LDOCEでは“if something is a shambles, it is very disorganized and there is a lot of confusion”と定義されています。以上から,空港が「完全に大混乱の場」であったことがよくわかりました。(Kiwi girl)
