But you go ahead and believe in that make believe storm that ONLY grounded SW planes..Sat and Sun
Corporate policy is to spin ANY negative publicity, or deny the actual cause outright. The suits can cook up a story for everything. They do believe no one will question it. Large egos dictate this.

What do you think the reason is?

Today SW blamed the FAA and the FAA blamed the airline.

More freak storms that only affected SW....cancellations at Denver, Chicago, Baltimore and Dallas.

Only near 400 cancellations today. SW still insists it was due to "weather".

Passengers and airline observers questioned Southwest’s explanation for the widespread disruptions, noting that other airlines have seen no significant effects from weather or air traffic control challenges.

Denver had sun and mild weather today……except for the tornado directly over the SW airlines hub at DIA. It’s been circling for days. Absolutely tragic

Someone posted on Twitter, therefore it must be true, eh.

There was no ATF walkout.

JAX did not close.

Some of the comments reported no flights to / from Florida - complete BS.


Southwest Airline cancelled 568 flights and delayed 717 to/ from anywhere due to weather and denies it has anything to do with labor.

Heard on the affiliate news this evening that the cancellations were up to 2,000 now.

They lie all the time though so who knows?

Yep. I'm thinking pilot slowdown, even though they deny it. In any case, this can't reasonably be explained on "weather" as some would like us to believe.

The pilots don't have to tell the unions anything. That allows the union to tell the truth when they said there was no "planned walkout".

When the government plays "dirty" sometimes you have to play "dirty" back.

Yeah. Many if not most truck drivers are dirty knuckle dragging uneducated racist Trump supporters.
