Last week President Donald Trump asked for a full and unrelenting boycott of several corporations who are operating as political activists to advance an agenda on behalf of the far-left. The corporations spoke against election integrity and are opposed to secure election reforms.
Among those corporations cited for immediate boycott was Delta Airlines. On Sunday Delta cancelled over 100 flights: ” Websites at three Delta hubs showed 33 canceled flights arriving or departing, the newspaper notes, with 19 canceled flights at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, 11 at Detroit’s Metropolitan Airport and three at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport.” (link)
Delta is claiming “staff shortages” suddenly appeared in multiple states, simultaneously; that had never happened before, immediately after the boycott began. This story reeks of Delta cancelling the flights because of the boycott, but they don’t want to admit the reason for the cancellation so they make up an artificial justification.

Great news!
Going woke is a whole lot easier than flying airplanes.
Delta, where the shortest distance between two points is never a straight line...
Tank DELTA !
If your are a Lefty Saul Alinsky hemorrhoid, FLY DELTOID.
Delta stock up 3% today - which is a big move in exactly the wrong direction.
Coca-Cola is also up - 0.57% - which is a price friendly move up.
It was Easter...
I wouldn’t write too much into this either way without way more data.
This article made me realize what a colossally stupid move Delta made. They are HALF of the massive Atlanta airport, which means that a disproportionate number of passengers live or travel to Georgia compared to other airlines. Unlike ethereal measurements like MLB ratings, people usually have two or three choices of airline when making their $400-$4,000 purchase. They are very exposed right now, with no easy way to walk it back.
After being married to a Delta flight attendant for 24 years, I can tell you, many call in sick on major holidays. Especially ones with kids.
Must be the resurgence of the COVID!!! /rimshot
Economic POW er
No doubt all those conservative flight attendants called in sick right?
IMO
And I've never traded it...
I have been turned away by CEO actions over past couple of years, plus now this. I’ve got lots of frequent flyer mileage to use, but will rethink paid travel.
Covid got ‘em.
Get Woke, Go Broke.
Delta was my airline.
Note the “was”.
Thanks to that nasty capitalism that leftists hate, there are always competitors.
At least it’ll eliminate having to go through Hotlanta.
Bit of a streach.
Ticket decisions are made in advance.
If I had to guess, there were other factors at play.
