But why? Is everyone calling in "sick?"[/quote]
[b]Very possible that it's about the strict guidelines that have to be followed as to their hours in the seat and time off.[/b][/quote]

This.

Even if they have crew in Miami (and other FL locations) ready and willing to fly, regulations prevent it.

My friend had a flight booked into Miami yesterday evening that was cancelled.  She was flying down to pack up and bring back her elderly aunt today.  Now her cousin in GA is driving in to pick her up.  [/quote]
But the flights yesterday were the usual schedule. How does a crew shortage appear on half the flights? [/quote]
You're right! It's a conspiracy!

You just don't get it, do you? When shit starts hitting the fan, it causes a ripple effect. Longer days, busier airports, delays, all time out flight crews, then they need required rest. Then flights are delayed or cancelled at point A. So the plane doesn't make it to point B on time. Which makes the plane late to Florida, point C. Then maybe it gets cancelled.

It's not complicated. [/quote]
