My folks are flying Southwest on Tuesday. What is the status of this situation? Heard that the pilots union sued the airline over vax mandate. Friends of mine are stuck in Miami and their southwest flight was canceled today and can’t get out until Tuesday as of now. Friend said the Austin airport is a mess, especially around the southwest gates with people sleeping and laying around everywhere. Any updates?

Unfortunately, your family got caught up in the middle of a fight for freedom from government and corporate tyranny. I’d encourage you to help direct all understandable ire to the appropriate guilty parties.
Yes here is the update. How about you support the pilots by not flying anywhere and making sure the airline loses billions. It would take such small things for all of us to make them pay but if you are not willing to change your life at all then we will lose.
lol yeah not flying will help the pilots...by getting them layed off....good plan.

No American with a thinking brain should be flying on domestic flights right now.
You realize that all of those ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS who are crossing the Southern Border carrying God knows what diseases... are being placed on domestic airline flights and flown to other cities in the U.S.? Thousands of them per day are flying on the airlines to different cities in the U.S., or being transported from one location to another.
Some of them have Covid. Others have any of dozens of dangerous diseases and viruses, completely unchecked. They sit in the airplane seats, use the arm rest, exhale into the ventilation system and infect nearly anyone on the plane.
Do you notice that, when the planes arrive in Chicago or Boston or Boise, Idaho... they are unloaded, repacked with new passengers and back in the air again in 90-minutes? There is absolutely NO CLEANING or disinfecting of the plane. You sit in the same seat that the illegal immigrant occupied 90 minutes earlier. :>) How do you like your Ebola? or your Leprosy?
Stay OFF of domestic flights in the U.S.. They are flying infection wards, due to U.S. Government policies. If you choose to fly domestically, then you have no reason to complain when you become deathly ill from some 3rd world disease.
A friend of mine was supposed to fly home from OKC this morning, but said all the SouthWest flights were cancelled. No solid reason given. They still had their rental car so they’re driving back to San Antonio. Planning to bill SW for the $300+ charge for not returning the car in OKC.
SW doesn’t run a hub and spoke operation like other airlines, therefore they are affected by cancellations more. They should have flown another airline.
I have never seen such cheap flights to Hawaii one way. I cab fly from Boise for less than $200! Never seen less than $300 from the coast. Seriously, look around and see. Is it because you have to quarantine when you get there? https://www.expedia.com/lp/flights/boi/hnl/boise-to-honolulu
