And a Merry Christmas to you!

(NEXSTAR) – Two major airlines have canceled dozens of flights scheduled for Christmas Eve, largely due to the omicron variant. 

United Airlines has canceled about 120 flights scheduled for Christmas Eve due to COVID-19 cases impacting staffing.

  1. yeah whatever. Shitty airline probably pilots still protesting vax mandate. Saw their 1994 commuter flight catastrophy on airline disasters the other night. Quite the awesome diversity hires they had there.

    1. United has 331 pilots on indefinite involuntary unpaid leave as an accommodation to not taking the vaccine. This shortage is entirely United's fault.

  2. Phuck em, the whole industry.
    And when they start grovelling and begging for a bailout, give it to them sideways with a rusty chainsaw. That whole industry is wildly inefficient, poorly run, and a giant sinkhole of waste. Let it fail already for crying out loud. If your industry constantly needs a bailout, you're obviously a pretty fucking shitty industry. Just go die already.

      Your opinion has been noted, citizen! The rest of your post was garbled in transmission.

    1. I am not sure where this airline BS will end, but I am noticing that the charter aircraft business is picking up. Earlier this week I saw where two midsized charter companies merged and now they have over 200 available aircraft to provide various charter services.
      All it takes to win in this business is to get people to where they want or need to go. Get the TSA out of the picture and now the covid police and with some time and added volume prices will come down as more people book private or semi private charters.

  4. Maybe the people will be tortured enough that they throw the masks and tell the government to go fuck itself like they should have done a year and a half ago.
