Airlines are notorious for poor customer service. They all lie about the reason for delays and cancelled flights. United in particular is bad. Cancelled my flight for a bogus reason. And delayed my girlfriends flight for 6 hours and never bothered to explain why.
Something needs done to regulate the airlines, particularly when it comes to customer service and telling the truth.
Simple, airlines in particular are greedily chasing those dollars they lost during covid. Flights are scheduled now when there is little or no allowance for the “human factor”, whether due to health, physical limitations, contract limitations or simple change in work ethic. From the restart too many flights were rolled out. Simply schedule the flights you Know you can handle, not what some bean counter Thinks they can handle. You are going to have pilots, flight attendants, ops agents, gate agents, baggage handlers, etc actually get sick a little more often than before (we have new bugs to contend with). You are going to have more staff with fatigue, then there’s work ethic. we gave the world a year+ off & now the mindset has changed.
Good to know, does this also happen to inter-island. Having just recovered from Covid-19, it has been increasingly common to hear of others who have gotten this, it is extremely contagious, it’s not surprising. Thank you for this info!
A state who’s transportation department flag is a massive 666? Say it isn’t so. Damn thing is flying at every Hawaiian airport. I just left Hawaii after living there for years. Enjoy the new facial recognition systems at all the airports. Just flew back and forth via crap United that pushed the clotshot and had nothing but delays flying in and out of Denver to Honolulu.
I fly SW almost weekly.
In the past year with over 100 flights I had one morning flight canceled and rebooked later in the day.
I had two flights cancled and I was on the third flight out. 3 hour delay and i have had a number of flights leave later that booked.
Really a small percentage considering.
With numerous flight to Calif, Texas, Fla., Colorado, New Orleans, and Hawaii.
I don’t know why not fly SW.
Our 531 flight on Alaska Air from LAX to HNL was on time bur we sat on the tarmac at HNL for at least 1.5 hours waiting for the gate/jetway to become available so we could disembark. They told us it was a lack of staffing.
All goes back to Vaccination Mandates and Governor Ige taking the Federal $ (other people’s $, that led to the Recession) to have the Service Industry (Hotels, Dining, Retail, Tourism) stay home. They never told anyone again about the 2,000 Hospital, Fire, Police and EMT that were fired for not getting a Vaccination that did nothing to cause immunity to a man made virus! Ditto a 13th Century Mask Mandate.

There is runway construction starting soon that may contribute also.

Why would anyone fly SW anywhere let alone Hawaii?

Sounds about right
