American Airlines Cancels or Delays 12,000 July 4 Weekend Flights (Because of a Glitch)

It’s just a glitch.

This is totally unrelated to that other storyline where the airlines were collapsing because of mass firings for refusal to take the vax, or the storyline where all of America’s infrastructure is collapsing in real time.

Fox News:

A glitch in the American Airlines scheduling platform reportedly allowed pilots to drop thousands of trips as delays and cancellations have derailed Fourth of July travel plans across the country.

CNBC reported Saturday that more than 12,000 July flights were lacking a captain, first officer, or both after pilots were able to drop assignments through a glitch in the scheduling platform.

They failed to keep the IT system running properly and now thousands of flights do not have pilots assigned to them,” Dennis Tajer, an American Airlines captain and spokesman for the Allied Pilots Association, said adding that the situation has caused “uncertainty for passengers and pilots.”

The airline has reportedly suspended the scheduling service.

If this is actually the real story – can you imagine if Russia and/or China decided to actually start hacking America?

Someone thought it was a good idea to have all necessary services dependent on digital technology. That probably wasn’t really a very good idea, in hindsight.
