Here we go again.
Just a week after United Airlines grounded its 777 fleet for safety inspections, American Airlines is canceling hundreds of flights to recheck the wiring on its MD-80s.
Yesterday by 500 flights got axed, and the airline says they’ll be more cancellations nowadays. precisely how many remains to be seen, but we did a random check that wee hours and it wasn’t looking so good. All ten of today’s American flights from New York LaGuardia to Chicago O’Hare are canceled, as are half of the ten non-stops from Dallas to Los
The airline says it’s trying to get citizens impacted by the safety inspections onto other flights, but by 50,000 passengers were affected yesterday, so expect things to be brawny out there for a while.
If you’re wondering about the status of your flight, sign American at 800.433.7300, or enter your flight details on the “Gates & Times” page of the American website.
