Delta Air Lines reportedly cancelled 325 flights in the days leading up to Christmas. Christmas was the busiest travel season of the pandemic. A perfect storm of bad weather and a lack of pilots forced Delta to cancel the flights over a three-day period starting December 23. Business Insider reports Thanksgiving similarly saw over 600 flight cancellations at the airline. The cancellations reveal a trend of poor performance for Delta during the holidays.

CEO Gary Kelly had previously said the jet's first flight would "likely take place no sooner than the second quarter of 2021." Southwest will receive 35 more jets in 2021, more than doubling its current pre-grounding fleet of Max aircraft. Passengers looking to avoid the jet will be allowed to make free changes, but Southwest says it reserves the right to use the Max for any flight.
