Delta Air Lines reportedly cancelled 325 flights in the days leading up to Christmas. Christmas was the busiest travel season of the pandemic.

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.
