And blamed the weather? It was too windy in Dallas or too sunny in Fresno or too cloudy in Miami or something?
So that was… not so true.
Turns out close to 90% of the cancellations were “crew”-related. Which DEFINITELY has nothing to do with the civil war over vaccine mandates that has now reached such a pitch that American’s own pilots are worried about it becoming a cockpit distraction.
And this potential distraction DEFINITELY won’t get worse now that the feds have finally issued their official mandate rules.
Solidarity here. I work for a Fortune 100 company and have so for 14 years. The CEO told us all more than once he would never mandate the vaccine, but today they did a 180 and are forcing all US employees (about 45,000) to get it, or an accommodation, or get fired on Jan 4. I have a family of 6; our only income. I say: Pound Sand and #LetsGoBrandon. Time to STAND.
I flew last week on American and there were a lot of people that had plans changed. Did not hear one person complain - they all knew the real reason and were in full support.
Side note- I travel all across the country and have throughout this pandemic. I listen to Brandon every now and then and honestly it is weird to hear him speak about the “pandemic” because I keep forgetting we are in a “pandemic”. I can’t explain the feeling but I honestly get weirded out about this alternate reality he speaks about that I don’t see happening anywhere.
There is no way I'm flying anywhere right now with all this turmoil. Plus what if the pilot was jabbed and had one of those "coincidences" mid-air? Nope. Car trips only! (if I can afford the fuel, lol)
I will hope that there will be still some jobs (under the table/ black market) for the deplorables. I mean - hey - we are some of the most hard working and ethical people. Some tiny company will hire me right?
The Supreme Court has taken the side of the drug manufactuers and now every American will be vaccinated by the rule of law. Some people are looking forward to having their 5 year old's jabbed. It's a sick society and it's not Covid that concerns me.
Cancel culture Just wait for that bag of bones in the White House to mandate children to be fully Vaccinated to attend school. You will have a lot of unhappy Mama Bears with frying pans.
How convenient for the mandate to kick in January 4th; it will avoid holiday travel snarls. That’s some deadly virus - it can work around Christmas travel:)
Since, all the vaccines do is make people sick and vaccine-dependent, it is reasonable to conclude that the plan is to use vaccine mandates for the express purpose of shutting down America.
My definition of superheroes are most people on this thread and those actively resisting mandates to be injected with an experimental drug that is not a vaccine! Seize the narrative!
My company held a business networking event tonight at a brewing company-restaurant. We had over 100 people and of course since we were throwing the event, no masks. We are in SC. So when I read about some of these other places it seems like there are two worlds out there. Here in SC it’s OVER and it’s been over for a long time.
I flew into Dallas late last Friday night (after original flight was cancelled and forced me to route via another city). I overheard a flight attendant and a pilot (who was not on duty) talking about "work stops" -- one this week and one the week of Thanksgiving. 1,884 due to crew and only 300 due to weather. I think we all know the truth.
I stand with all these pilots. I do a lot of traveling, and I'm sure at some point I'm going to be really inconvenienced by these cancellations, but these pilots are heroes in my eyes. I'll gladly sit in a terminal for 10 hours every once in a while to stand with what they're doing.
If you’re even thinking of traveling by air over Thanksgiving holidays, I’m not saying you’re mentally challenged, but you might have bad luck thinking.
I bet those airline pilots start noticing OSHA violations they never noticed before in the coming months. Can't imagine what chaos it might cause if tens of thousands of OSHA complaints got filed. Not suggesting they should, but it could happen, you know.
I'm top status with American and sent them a note reminding them that they have more responsibility to their employees than to any political pressure and should consider expanding exemption qualifications. The response was the usual claptrap about health and safety. Woke HR is definitely in charge of the corporate world.
I'm *AMAZED* at how quickly our country has become a second world nation. We are at each other's throats and everything is dividing us. It's as if one more poll on our favorite Holloween candy can start a fist fight in a bar.
What ever happened to Live and Let Live? If people don't want to get injected with experimental therapeutics, why is that a problem for anyone? If you're already injected, calm the Eff down and feel good about yourself.
Our flight was cancelled once we got to Phoenix (going to San Francisco). Didn’t complain. I knew why. As said it was the weather and I was laughing my ass off. It was beautiful and clear as day. #FreedomFlu
Atlas Shrugged! Who is John Galt? We will survive but will be painful and many more WILL perish. no comment on vaccine, but you will not mandate what goes in my body!!!
If you want to support us pilots who refuse the jab at the cost of our precious jobs please join USFreedomflyers.org. Your support is critical. Thank you.
We lived in Portland, Oregon for 13 years (to care for my husband's parents before they passed away). We finally escaped in June to Montana and the dual-reality this country is living in is insane. It's like an episode of the Twilight Zone. We bought a 20 acre farm and are so much happier; not being scared around people is something I'm going to, happily, get used to again.
Hey! Remember when Thomas Jefferson said we may need to have another revolution? He knew that the government would, as a natural state of affairs, become bloated with tax dollars, bloated with leeches called “civil servants” padding their departments and their gross salaries with tax payers money, and bloated with self-importance in their vaunted positions as “Senators and Congressmen and Presidents and on and on adnauseam”. Does this sound like anything you can think of ?
I think maybe we’ve gotten there, considering Der Fuhrer Biden and his bully boys in the Nazi, excuse me Democratic Party, and the vile Deep State!

I have started to - and will continue to - change every single aspect of my life if I have to, rather than let them coerce me into taking this bullshit pharmaceutical product. Who are you and what are you signifying if you take it when you don't want or need it? Hold the line. Cause if you don't, you'd better be ready to submit to the next, probably worse thing that's coming. It's not like the pharmaceutical companies (or anyone else in power) will be satisfied making just this money. It needs to be a recurring revenue stream.
By the time Americans realize that everything this administration is doing is intended to destroy businesses and force millions of people into dependency on government, it will be too late.
We live near an airport in a small city. It's weird right now. They are flying lower than we've ever seen them. The airport tells us the pilots consider it unsafe to take the route over an empty field where they need to ascend. I grew up here. We never had a crash ever over that field. Anyone who can prove to me it's not vaccinated pilots afraid of thrombosis, I'd love to hear.

Hubby is a pilot for AA. He won’t take the poison jab. Even if I begged him to, which I would never. This gonna get interesting.
I'll gladly give up my trips if it means bankrupting them.
I’m boycotting as many companies that have implemented illegal vaccine mandates as I can.
There is no way I'm flying anywhere right now with all this turmoil. Plus what if the pilot was jabbed and had one of those "coincidences" mid-air? Nope. Car trips only! (if I can afford the fuel, lol)
Like all the mandates, it's not about the virus or even the vaccines. It's goal is to shut down America, and it will succeed until we stop them.
Battle lines have been drawn.
This is a first in my life.
I will not negotiate or submit to testing.
But I have to feed my kids.

Massive civil disobedience. We revoke the consent of the governed
I just put myself on a no fly list

As demonstrated by history self serving authoritarian ideologues destroy everything they touch.

Exactly- American was fooling nobody but themselves. As I said to the AA pilot on Tuesday, we support the Freedom Flu and he said right on!
This all stops when we NO! Sounds to me like that’s what AA pilots are saying.

Until these airlines quit mandating "vaccine" injections, I am refusing to fly!

The word is out that Southwest will have lots of pilots become sick over Thanksgiving weekend.

This is the only way to end what's happening. So thankful for the pilots, navigators and flight attendents risking their jobs to do this.
Let's go Brandon!

"Roll up your sleeve" is the new "bend over" and pilots, apparently, are not exactly the compliant sort...
Alex--this is just a simple 'thank you' for everything you've done and continue to do to find and disseminate truth about this issue.
Just wait until manufacturing plants try to make workers get vaccinated under (phony) OSHA "mandate".
We need mandatory Testosterone testing for 90% of Republican politicians.

I think I will postpone any air travel for the foreseeable future. What a fustercluck of a country we are living in.
By the time Americans realize that everything this administration is doing is intended to destroy businesses and force millions of people into dependency on government, it will be too late.
How many pilots have bowed out not over vax mandate rejection, but vax injury? One pilot tells his story at Sen Ron Johnson's recent panel in DC: https://thehighwire.com/videos/live-in-d-c-expert-panel-on-medical-mandates-vaccine-injuries/

Southwest was 2 weekends ago, and American was last weekend, so will the "bad weather" strike another airline this weekend? Maybe United?
