| Anonymous Coward User ID: 83321186 United States12/27/2022 12:18 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Several factors, including the mess that this week’s weather has created, have combined to bring Southwest Airlines into a nearly full-stop operational meltdown. Quoting: Flying Elvii Besides the weather, they have personnel issues in several cities, the reservation system has collapsed under the rebooking load, and the aircraft and crew scheduling systems are completely overloaded. 10’s of thousands of people across the country are stuck…. As a result, Southwest will halt almost ALL of it’s flights on Tuesday and Wednesday to reser the people and airplanes required to make the airline work properly. Southwest has canceled thousands of flights since the 22nd, and has declared an emergency status that suspends several union work rules, in an attempt to get back on track. Passengers in some cities are being told they can’t even rebook a canceled flight until Dec31st, AT THE Earliest! https://twitter.com/_/status/1607511661857890304 https://twitter.com/_/status/1607602838640943104 [imgur] [link to imgur.com (secure)] Short of a bankruptcy shutdown or 9/11, I cannot remember this ever happening in my 30+ years in the aviation business! This is great news for so many! Thanks to all who worked so hard and so long to make this possible. |

User ID: 84165270 United States12/27/2022 12:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Are any other airlines having this much trouble??? If not, why is it just Southwest? Something doesn't seem right about this, unless all airlines are in the same boat. Are none of these people trying to get on other airlines' flights? The only headlines I've seen are about Southwest... TANSTAAFL - There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 84647103 United States12/27/2022 01:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The problem is several fold #1 VP hires that have no business being in the position they are in #2 these incompetent “leaders” will never be fired for their failures #3 almost all rampers in DEN walked off the job after being threatened by one of these “VPs” #4 skysolver (the new’ish) program to fix scheduling hiccups is a colossal failure #5 scheduling has NO idea where ANY crew are actually Many reports of several crew members dead heading in the back who are legal to fly by scheduling doesn’t know where the flying crew are. So dead heading crew call scheduling to tell them they’ll be happy to fly out and get the plane on the way but they are on hold for over 1.2 hrs just to get through and ultimately it gets canceled |

Sounds like yet another important reason to justify never, ever going near an airport ever again. PS…. Look at all the bags and baggage in that video. Only Heaven knows how many thousands of tens of thousands of random bags and baggage are lost in the sauce right now. |

Southwests Love Field is actually 30 minutes closer to home but 6 years ago they had a similar mess and I was done. American is far from perfect, I've been fucked by them plenty too.
