Pilots at Southwest appear to be sicking out in a rebellion against vaccine mandates that has crippled the airline since Friday.
Why Southwest and not United? Maybe because LUV is based in Dallas and has a 50-year-history of standing up to government overreach. On Friday the pilots’ union asked for a temporary halt to the mandate.
The flight cancellations began almost immediately and are continuing today.
This is a live update from Southwest in Orlando:

The revolt begins - at Southwest Airlines
