Memorial Day travel has been dominated by flight cancellations this weekend, which have piled up around the country.
as of Saturday afternoon. Delta was performing the worst on that score among US airlines, with some 9 percent of its operations eliminated for the day. Moreover, Delta’s largest hub at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta is having an especially tough time, it seems. Five percent of all Delta flights there were canceled, with 7 percent delayed.
After being implored by the Delta employee to “calm down,” the Twitter user continued: “Calm down? Been on hold for over 2 hours, Daisy. Really trying.”The frustrations on both sides is certainly understandable. Because, according to news reports, more than 3,500 Memorial Day weekend flight cancellations have piled up so far.
“From July 1-Aug. 7, we’ll reduce service by approximately 100 daily departures, primarily in markets in the US and Latin America that Delta frequently serves. This will build additional resilience in our system and improve operational reliability for our customers and employees; we’ll continue to proactively adjust select flights in the coming weeks.”Over 3,000 flights were cancelled as the holiday weekend kicked off, leaving travelers with a massive headache. Happy effing Memorial Day.
