More than 1,400 US Flights Canceled Friday
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – More than 1,400 flights scheduled to take place Friday within, coming into or leaving the US have been canceled, according to flight tracking website FlightAware, as airlines continue to struggle with timely departures this summer.
Along with 1,482 cancellations, airlines had more than 7,000 delays on Friday within, into or out of the US, The Hill reported.
Among US airlines, American Airlines had the most cancellations at 263, while Southwest was second with 193 cancellations.
Airlines have been struggling this summer with persistent cancellations and delays that have left customers and lawmakers frustrated.
Earlier this week, Democrats introduced the Cash Refunds for Flight Cancellations Act amid the flight disruptions.
