My daughter was to have a flight on #SunCountry tomorrow to leave Tampa for home and they just outright cancelled it. There are no flights to reschedule and they won't put her on another airline to get her home.

I'm currently working on designing a new fleet operation system with a lot more built-in automation for resource scheduling. I am curious based on the recent Southwest #ITfailure , what some of the #rootcause for these large scale failures are. Have any of these companies published their after action review findings?

We just flew on an inaugural flight from MSP-EAU. 737-800. 85 miles. 90 mins via car. Total pork contract and abuse of #essentialairservice program funds. Former owner of #SunCountry was a big Trump supporter and donor. Weird how anti-government #Republicans are OK with deep subsidies when it benefits them. #hypocrisy cc @MeidasTouch
