Unless you are passing through U.S. Immigration when entering the U.S., there is generally no check on whether or not you are wanted for airline passengers. However, in the case of a major crime where a person is being actively pursued by the authorities, part of the search may include checking passenger lists in relevant cities.
If selected for extra screening, however, it is possible that a more thorough check may turn up your warrant. (Note: In Canada, transportation officials and airport security do not have access to general arrest warrant information. Police officers stationed at airports, however, most certainly do.)
Bear in mind that, in the United States, it is generally a crime to cross State lines to avoid prosecution. Fleeing to another jurisdiction may, in fact, worsen the charges involved.
Sure, but it won't do you any good. A warrant signed in one state is only good in that state. If an arrest warrant is signed in Vermont, it is useless in Florida. You have to get another arrest warrant signed in Florida.
Another View: The first answer is incorrect. The apprehending state will detain you while they notify the "wanting" state that they have you in custody. If it is an extraditable offense, that information will be included on the computer "hit" and you will be held by the apprehending state until the "wanting" state files the proper legal process to have you returned for p[rosecution.

I don't know how IL law is but in NY they can only hold him for thirty days if FL is not ready to extradite him by then they would have to let him go warrant and all. Now this depends if he got time for the DUI if so they would have until 30 days after his scheduled release date.
Will an arrest warrant for speeding in NY be issued in Nebraska?
No. Just don't go back to NY. Short of committing murder, you won't be expedited to NY because of the distance between the two states. It would cost too much money for the state to pick you up on a speeding ticket. (RED2161)
