The “flightmare” continued today for thousands of Southwest Airlines passengers, including those stuck at Bay Area airports, as the carrier announced another massive round of cancellations.
Many travelers went for plan B.
"Maybe we're going to try to find a car, but it seems to be very difficult to get a car as well," Cristophe Vielliard of Switzerland said."We waited in the wrong line because I got an email from Hertz saying we had a car there, but apparently we have to come here," Lucy Sotelo of San Jose said."We got it through Payless but they want us to go through Budget. I think everyone is borrowing cars.
The travel trauma continues. Southwest Airlines again canceled more than 2,000 flights across the country Tuesday and many passengers heard they won’t get on a plane till New Years. Business and Tech Reporter Scott Budman reports. Southwest is less centralized than the other airlines, so dominoes are falling all over the country. The airline did issue a statement saying, for the next few days, it's only running a third of its normal schedule to reposition staff and planes.
"They have flights that go from anywhere to anywhere else, so that means their pilots, their flight attendants, their planes are all over the place," Daniel Finkle from TripActions said.
