Want a good laugh? "The airline blamed the problem on air traffic control issues and weather. In a statement Saturday the airline expressed optimism its operations on Sunday would improve, not worsen."

Want the truth?

Southwest Airlines - another day another 1,000 cancellations … and counting​

The revolt begins - at Southwest Airlines

Pilots at Southwest appear to be sicking out in a rebellion against vaccine mandates that has crippled the airline since Friday.


Word is American Airlines pilots will go out next

This is what makes the people in power. Not government or big companies. If workers don’t show up the companies fail and lose money. This is an example of the power of the employees and don’t lay down like a bunch of sheep.

Sounds like you are hoping for higher prices/inflation and less options?
No I think that we're tired of the narrative that "we have to make it inconvenient for the unvaxxed" if more of this keeps happening and flip that inconveniency on it's head the narrative will quickly change to, we have reached herd immunity and we no longer need to have these mandates.

Conservatives understand, appreciate , and support this concept......others, no so much ;)
Not only do I appreciate it, I understand it is exactly why many conservatives and independents refused to vote for Trump in the last election and why he lost. 😉

Trump "conservatism" is antithetical to Reagan "conservatism".

Trump "conservatives" want a country which is 180 degrees opposite of Reagan "conservatives'.

Neither is right, neither is wrong, they just want a completely different America.

So each goes their own way as they should be entitled to do. 👍👍👍

This is true. Simple question for the all knowing smartest smartkins to ever grace this website with his keyboard warriorism skills: Are we closer to a "Reagan" style U.S. today under Biden, or were we closer under Trump?

NEWS FLASH....Reagan is dead and his economics are being pushed to the side via you RINOs. :mad:
Now you continue crying and wallowing in your grief ..... and you foolishly continue to defend the path of political destruction you have chosen ......Turing your back on the only "anti-socialist" alternatives is DEFINITELY NOT the answer......Conservatives know this, others not so much. :cool:

Get woke, go broke.

Fuck them. We’ll spend twice the money driving next month, I just cancelled my tickets.
Funny. I'm the same way. Traveling by car is actually getting to the enjoyable stage. If i need to travel for work, well then they will just have to account for my time delay due to covid restrictions.

SWAPA has grave concerns about the direction Southwest Airlines has taken in putting profits ahead of people. Enough is enough. We need leadership, not apologies.

All the Vaxxed up companies are shitting themselves right now. “Are we next?”
Lol. F’em.
The vaxxed up airlines like United are loving this.

Higher fares, higher margins, higher profits, tons of stranded passengers to serve and plenty of vaxxed Southwest pilots to hire to fill openings.

Perfect storm of opportunity to grow market share, raise prices to the customer and fill vacant positions.

Seems odd that only SWA is experiencing this severe weather delays. :)


Yep, looks like the Union is flat out lying to the traveling public as opposed to being honest so travelers could book on other airlines and not be economically and physically stranded. Pilots don't appear to care about their passengers and are happy to leave them stranded.

Perhaps at the pilot level, however the reality at the large hubs is the black community makes up 75% of the ground crews. The vaccination rate among the black community is below 50% last I checked. No one is going to want to fly anywhere with all the delays, which of course the climate crowd will love. Hmmm, almost like it was planned.

Thank you and welcome to Vaggot Airlines. We hope you enjoy your flight with all the rest of your fellow vaggots. We'll fly as low as we can................to minimize your blood clots.

Sounds good to me. 🖕 😆 🖕

"Hey did you guys see 530's latest post? He is opining that we should just give up on our seniority here at SWA, and switch to a new union and lose all our seniority and pay and start over at United. Before you guys say he's the BobbyV of aviation, keep in mind he's a "conservative", and the self admitted smartest guy in every room." - SWAPA
