Air travelers in the US hoping for clear skies on Tuesday following a disastrous week of weather-related flight cancellations and delays will have to extend their patience a few more days -- particularly if they're flying with Southwest Airlines.
"We had a tough day today. In all likelihood we'll have another tough day tomorrow as we work our way out of this," Jordan said in an interview Monday evening with WSJ.com.The winter storm that swept across the US was ill-timed for travelers who had started pushing Christmas week flying numbers back toward pre-pandemic levels.On Christmas Eve, there were a total of 3,487 flights canceled, according to FlightAware.
Travelers wait at a Southwest Airlines baggage counter to retrieve their bags after canceled flights at Los Angeles International Airport, Monday, December 26, 2022, in Los Angeles.The airline also says,"those whose flights have been canceled may request a full refund or receive a flight credit, which does not expire."
"With those cancellations and as a result, we end up with flight crews and airplanes that are out of place and not in the cities that they need to be in to continue to run our operations." "If you've already left, take care of yourself, do what you need to do for your family, keep your receipts," McVay relayed."We will make sure they are taken care of, that is not a question."
