Airlines already cutting 10s of thousands of flights for holidays.

There’s good news and bad news about air travel. The good news is that American Airlines is ordering supersonic airplanes that will drastically cut down travel time. For example, they can make the tip from Miami to London in 5 hours, a trip that normally takes nearly 9 hours. It looks like they’ll be more comfortable and have really col views. But, it’ll cost as much as a first class ticket on regular flights. That’s not the bad news. The bad news is that American Airlines just announced that they’re cutting 31,000 flights leading up to the holidays. And if past trends are any indicator, other airlines will follow suit. So, better make sure the old family wagon gets a tune up before Thanksgiving.

Seriously though, all the airlines are still dealing with trouble staffing and making flights. I’d plan on driving or doing Christmas on Zoom this year.
