Southwest Airlines Co cancelled at least 30% of its scheduled flights on Sunday, a second straight day of heavy cancellations, data from flightaware.com showed.
Southwest declined to confirm the number of cancelled flights, saying only it had a significant amount over the weekend due to unfavorable weather in Florida that was compounded by air traffic control issues in the same region.
According to the flight tracking site, the airline has cancelled 1,103 flights so far on Sunday, which comes on top of 808 or 24% of scheduled flights on Saturday. The cancellation rate was much greater than those of other airlines. Alan Kasher, Southwest's executive vice president of daily operations, told employees earlier on Sunday that while the airline was staffed for the weekend, it did not anticipate the size of the disruptions.
