Delta's own pilots are saying it. They are understaffed and the combination of weather and staffing levels have resulted in high levels of cancellations and delays over peak travel periods. We saw it at Thanksgiving, Christmas, Memorial Day and now Spring Break. This is not just Delta but Delta is worse than its peers this spring.
