They are blaming no truck drivers with proper credentials? The Wuhan virus is the cause? Or is it peak flying time for vacationers? Or is it climate change control through the back door? Maybe all three!

The carrier said airlines, including American, have experienced the delays due to a lack of truck drivers, trucks and fuel supply.

I heard on the radio last week that we have a huge surplus of jet fuel. Every crisis is manufactured by the people/companies that control life as we know it.
Peak fire season in the west is greatly increasing fuel use for firefighting aircraft. Small airports only get so many fuel deliveries a day and a lot of that is being used for fighting fires. Bob
Well...............we had plenty before Biden and the DEMOCRATs cut domestic production. THAT is WHY we DONT have JET fuel and GAS prices are going UP.
NOT fault of pilots, airlines, and truck drivers.
Never trust the DEMOCRAT protection racket and liars in the media.

I heard this morning that airlines are asking their pilots to conserve fuel............WTH..........do the pilots normally just disregard the fuel weight/load and go balls to the wall because they can?
Cancel non-essential vacation flights & use the fuel for planes to fight the fires. That way we save property from the fires and lives & medical resourses by limiting those infected spreading from the kung-flu. STAY HOME
You're real big on that whole personal freedom and liberty thing, aren't you, Comrade?

....Uh, that is meant as sarcasm, right? Change, disrupt MY LIFE because of YOUR ignorant President, don't think so...
...Accepting that the Chinese flu (thank you Commie scumbags), has hit all industries across the board, I think we are both lucky and very fortunate that we have not seen large reductions in services...I hope all this crap is coming to an end...one of senile Joes first agenda items to "Screw America First" was to shut down the Keystone pipeline, but, considering he is older than dirt, I doubt if a shortage of crude oil in the next couple of years will ever effect him...
