In August of this year (2 months ago) they announced they'd be cutting flights and laying off more people through November 5.

It was an announced thing, it's not a "gotcha" situation, conspiracy, or coverup at all.
LOL They cancelled 1800 flights in two days, stranding tens of thousands of paying customers and causing a huge ripple effect with other airlines, and you think this was "just planned cutbacks" Too funny
