Welp!
@SouthwestAir’s entire system for obtaining weather report packets is down — so the whole airline is barred from taking off, per FAA regulations. ??
It was only 4 days ago, that Southwest restored normal operations…

In case you thought
@SouthwestAir
got their shite together in 2023, I'm grounded on a fully boarded plane because the weather contractor they use for FAA-required weather packets is experiencing a nationwide systems failure. #SouthwestAirlines #Southwestmeltdown #southwest

Us, your loyal frequent flyers want to know why your company (&employees) aren’t equipped with better technology? Been sitting on a plane on the ground for 1.5 hours waiting to take off. Pilot says we cannot LEGALLY leave without weather info for our 4 hr flight.

Is this the whole fleet or just a few planes?

Something fricky going on with air travel lately.
Recent articles of terrorist attempting future plane attacks with new methods. Air Marshalls being sent to border.
Freaks me out.

I just searched twitter for "southwest airlines weather" and there are dozens of people all over the US complaining that they haven't been able to take off for the last 60-90 mins b/c of it.

Southwest might want to consider upgrading their software.

Southwest is starting to look like an unserious airline

Time for another sync, sync, reboot.

This is odd. Not sure I’ve ever seen an airline so this.
