Monday, 27 December 2021 (YJC)_ Reuters reports that more than a thousand flights of American airlines have been grounded due to the widespread prevalence of omicron and lack of flight crew.
More than 1,000 US airline flights have stalled in the middle of the Christmas holidays, raising concerns about the spread of a new strain of the coronavirus in the United States and the rise among flight crews.
According to Reuters, one thousand and one domestic and international flights in the United States have been canceled until noon on Sunday, local time. This is the third day in a row that US corporate flights have been canceled due to concerns about the widespread outbreak of omicrons, and will likely increase in the coming days.
In addition, thousands of flights have been delayed and out of schedule over the past three days due to lack of flight crew and related issues.
Passengers at the airport were extremely angry and frustrated by the delay and cancellation of flights, Reuters reported, quoting those present at the airports.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the highly contagious Omicron strain is now the predominant coronary strain in the United States, accounting for 73% of all cases.
