If a lot of planes on the ground were prohibited from taking off, but couldn't get back to their gates due to congestion/traffic, where will the planes go that are still in the air and ultimately land? Just disembark passengers out on the tarmac? (hopefully with some sort of bus pickup)

Yes, park somewhere - and wait a long time for their turn getting a ladder, because the numbers are nowhere near satisfying such peak demand.
