Airlines slash thousands of flights in November
Airlines are set to scrap tens of thousands of flights this November.
Nearly 35,000 flights will be cut across several US airlines.
American Airlines is expected to make the deepest cuts to November schedules.
It is trimming nearly 29,000 flights according to Cirium data which represents an overall reduction of 12.6%.
Delta Air Lines schedule is cut by 4,396 which is about 3%.
Another 1 ,000 combined flights are being grounded by United Airlines, Frontier and Canada’s WestJet.
American’s schedule downsizing includes reduced flight frequencies on routes and some routes being suspended altogether.
These include Chicago to San Jose, and Phoenix to Cleveland.
It affects about a dozen routes which have no service during November.
American Airlines CEO Robert Isom said the airline is taking proactive measures to build in extra reliability for what will be a busy holiday travel period.
It comes after American cut about 15,000 flights for September and October.
