Delta Meltdown 4/2/2022
Delta is 5th in the world for cancellations today behind two Chinese airlines and Southwest/American. More than 200 flights cancelled and still half of the day to go. Weather seems to be very mellow across the country except for central Florida. The three connection carriers are doing great. Mainline out of pilots again?
I have a feeling it's going to be a brutal summer. |

Yes, I was hoping Delta would provide an alternative to Alaska. Not much different, although 11% of AS flights are cxl today, DL 8%.

So then shouldn't AS be #5 and DL #6? Or are the ranks based on total number of cancelled flights rather than the percentage of scheduled segments that are cancelled?
Alaska is 11th worst in the world for number of flights cancelled today. |

Are they mostly due to weather, or something else, or unknown?

Flew out of ATL international F terminal early this morning. Complete chaos. Lines everywhere, no one in charge. My flight got cancelled. No one from DL to talk to. Security lineup was very reasonable. No weather issues.

The mainland China cancellations could be military exercises (which close or restrict the airspace, especially around PEK) or the current lockdown in Shanghai, where MU is based.
