We can now feel everywhere the BAD EFFECTS of Joe’s tyrannical vaccine mandates. From people losing their jobs to our economy’s supplies chain – we are losing the balance and Biden does nothing instead he continues to add problems to our country.
And American Airlines flight cancellations surely the effects of tyrant Joe’s vaccine mandates. Reports say more than 1,400 flights were canceled this weekend due to staff shortages and bad weather.
The US airline canceled 551 flights on Saturday and 480 flights on Sunday, in addition to the 376 flights it canceled on Friday.
If you can still remember that American Airlines told workers they must be fully vaccinated against Covid by November 24 or face termination. Now the airliner is being forced to cancel flights due to staffing shortages and “high wind gusts” near their busiest hub.
According to the pilot union at American, 30% – or 4,200 – of airline pilots are still not vaccinated for Covid.
Excerpt from a CNBC report:
American Airlines has canceled more than 1,000 flights since Friday, disruptions it blamed on staffing problems and high winds at its busiest hub.
On Saturday, American canceled nearly 460 flights, or 17% of its mainline schedule, according to flight-tracking site FlightAware. Dallas-based Southwest Airlines cut 86 flights, or 2% of its Saturday operation.
American canceled another 285 flights, or 10% of its schedule planned for Sunday, on top of 340 cancellations on Friday.
American’s COO David Seymour said in a staff note on Saturday that the problems started with high wind gusts on Thursday that cut capacity at its Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport hub and that crew members ended up out of position for their next flights.
Pilot and flight attendant availability were listed as reasons for most of the cancellations on Saturday and Sunday, according to internal tallies, which were seen by CNBC.
Earlier this month Southwest Airlines was forced to cancel thousands of flights which cost them $75 million after pilots boycotted their vaccine mandate.
