Southwest Airlines delays, cancels dozens of Florida flights as Texas Spring Break begins
SUMMARY: The week has been marked by numerous air travel issues, including engine fires, plane skidding off runways, and major delays and cancellations. Southwest Airlines cites bad weather in the southeast, particularly in Florida, as the cause. The series of incidents, involving mainly Boeing jets, is attributed to staffing shortages and manufacturing issues. United Airlines has frozen pilot hiring due to Boeing’s delayed deliveries. Despite the chaos, a family of six from El Paso manages to secure tickets for their first cruise after experiencing flight cancellations. Despite the challenges, they remain optimistic about reaching their destination.
Southwest Airlines delayed and canceled dozens of flights from Houston to Florida and vice versa due to thunderstorms and severe weather in the area.
