Why Delta Cancelled 300 Flights
Delta Air Lines reportedly cancelled 325 flights in the days leading up to Christmas.
Christmas was the busiest travel season of the pandemic.
A perfect storm of bad weather and a lack of pilots forced Delta to cancel the flights over a three-day period starting December 23.
Business Insider reports Thanksgiving similarly saw over 600 flight cancellations at the airline.
The cancellations reveal a trend of poor performance for Delta during the holidays.
