Now there’s even more bad news for Southwest flyers. Yesterday, Southwest Airlilnes announced that it was pushing its scheduled return of the 737 Max aircraft to June 6, 2020.
This action will result in the cancellation of approximately 330 weekday flights during the period from mid-April to early-June 2020. United and American Airlines had previously announced that they were pushing the return of the 737 Max to June 2020.
Unfortunately, the flight schedules of a “limited number” of Southwest customers who had already booked travel will be affected by this shuffle. These customers will be “re-accommodated” by the airline.
