We went in to the airport in Orlando to try to get a ticket agent to help. They had no flights available in the next four days. They threw their hands up. Nothing they could do. Told me to call for a refund as they can’t issue them. My kids are flying home today on Spirit. I never thought I would see the days when Spirit did a better job than Delta. All airlines need to quite overselling their flights. There is no option when flights get cancelled. I wish the Transportation Secretary would do his job and hold these airlines accountable.

I can't imagine why there would be any problem at all on the busiest weekend of the year, during massive nationwide storms. And with Christmas being on a Sunday - it means most "christmas visiting" travel will be on a Friday or Saturday - already the busiest days of the week, even when there's no holiday and perfect weather.
And all of this - hitting a particular airline that offers the most popular flights to Orlando from - everywhere that airline comes FROM, to get to Orlando.
Nah it can't possibly be a COMBINATION of things. It must - absolutely - be Southwest's fault, and no other possible factor added in.
