Canceled and delayed airline flights are frustrating. Most appreciate that they do happen. Usually, circumstances out of human control are the reason. Weather can play havoc with how safely our giant man-made birds function. Bad weather does factor in flight cancellations.
But what about those situations where flights are canceled because of human ineptitude? Those are the truly frustrating travel diversions. What makes these difficult situations worse is when airlines try to feed passengers a line of bull about why flights were canceled.
Over the last couple of years, this has happened more than most fliers would like to think about. Again, the problem isn’t with Mother Nature. The issues have been with inept airline policies and even more inept decisions by the Joe Biden White House.
Ahead of the heavily traveled Memorial Day holiday weekend, the wave of airline cancellations happened again. Roughly 4,000 flights were canceled during the weekend that Americans deem begins the start of summer. Most of the cancellations were last minute.
Like clockwork, the airline industry went to their fallback excuse. Flights were canceled, in May, mind you, because of weather and “air traffic control actions.” It turns out, that is not the truth. Once again, the airlines fed their passengers a line of bull.
So what was the real reason for approximately 4,000 last-minute flight cancellations? Look no further than the White House. Joe Biden’s insane vaccine mandates have dramatically carved away the number of airline employees.
The primary shortage is among commercial airline pilots. Many have refused to kowtow to the radical vaccine mandates. They deem the order to be both unnecessary and unconstitutional. It’s both. “The science” is proving that there is little difference in infection rates.
Vaccinated and boosted Americans are catching the milder COVID-19 variants at a rate equal to or sometimes higher than the unvaccinated. Natural immunity is steadily proving to be by far the best course of action.
But the vaccine-happy Biden administration won’t tell anyone this. Airline pilots know this. This is one reason why many have chosen to either find different employment or choose different pilot jobs. That’s the key reason 4,000 flights got axed during the Memorial Day weekend.
It wasn’t the weather. The weather was pristine over much of the nation. Americans know what’s going on. Most are tired of all the B.S. The U.S. Freedom Flyers is an advocacy group formed to help pilots and airline employees who do not want to get vaccinated.
The group appreciates that Joe Biden has forced these people to comply, quit, or be fired. There are estimates that 30 percent of the commercial airline’s source of pilots was fired. There go 30 percent of the flights already. Pilots aren’t the only ones affected.
Airlines have lost thousands of attendants and airport staff. There is no way to keep up. As well, consider that airline tickets have jumped nearly 50 percent, the airline industry is overwhelmed. Liberals may want you to believe that Mother Nature shut down 4,000 flights in one weekend.
But they’re wrong. The Draconian mandates of their boy, Joe Biden, are responsible. Some tried to warn that there would be consequences to these ignorant mandates. If you want to fly somewhere during the Memorial Day weekend, you experience yet another.
