Spirit Airlines major cancelations!!Recently, one airline has been dealing with some major flight cancelations, so if you’re flying Spirit Airlines to Disney World today (October 21st) or over the next few days, your flight could be affected.
About 100 Spirit Airlines flights were canceled yesterday, October 20th, due to ongoing aircraft inspections, according to Tampa Bay News affiliate WTSP 10. At the time, Spirit notified customers with the following statement:
“While this action is being taken out of an abundance of caution, the impact to our network is expected to last several days as we complete the inspections and work to return to normal operations. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to take care of affected Guests. Our Guests are advised to monitor their email and check their flight status on spirit.com or the Spirit Airlines App before heading to the airport.”
A total of 25 planes need to be inspected, which could take days. According to WTSP 10, the Federal Aviation Administration stated that the inspection would cover the brackets on the planes’ airframes. The inspections are mandatory and will “look for signs of cracking around fasteners that attach pressure panels to beams on the planes’ airframes.”
