More Flights Canceled as Weather Combines With Omicron-Driven Staff Shortages – The Wall Street Journal

Flight cancellations in the U.S. continued Monday as inclement weather combined with Covid-19-driven airline staff shortages that marred the Christmas weekend for many travelers.

Airlines scrubbed almost 1,300 flights on Monday, according to data tracker FlightAware, which expects around 260 flights to be canceled on Tuesday. Monday’s cancellations eased slightly from the weekend, with delays running at around half of Sunday’s levels, said FlightAware.
