And in the Las Vegas news, SWA cancels dozens of flights last night (Saturday) at McCarran, blaming 'weather' and air traffic control issues. Hmmmm ... maybe due to labor shortages is what I'm thinking.
If you had no pilot would you schedule a flight ?

My guess is that FAA workers didn't show up for work. Nothing in the news so I am speculating.
Fed workers are mandated to get vaccines. Many of these workers do not want the mandates.
When storms roll through, it is even more important to have Air Traffic being controlled and rerouted around the cell.
This was not the case. The airport was left high and dry. Florida - Storms and military air traffic are very common there.
Do you people have a focus problem, the thread was initiated based on claims of controller walkout, that turned out to be a lie. Now your off an running on riots and class warfare.
Weather common in Florida, is a need for more Air Traffic control, to reroute. Not tell them they are not needed.
The story does not add up, why they were way understaffed. The source, is an air traffic controller, but not in JAX. They were told, if they were not vax'd don't come in to work.

Well we don't know for sure if that was a lie.
From the OP link:
"..unexpected limited staff at the Jacksonville facility that handles high-altitude.."
No disrespect but can you read? It does indeed appear to be an ATC walkout causing this. I posted an article that hinted at that and so did others. Here is a Reddit thread where insiders seems to confirm that indeed it was ATC walkouts. There are apparent walk outs all over the place in relation to the airline industry. The unions are defending the pilots and others, and rightly so. Your liberal media is not covering this.
Had nothing to do with one airlines woes. This was about ATC being told not to show up if they had not been jabbed.
They have until November 24 to get shot up.
