The airline has ceased its laser focus on direct and NDC distribution, but the damage has been done.

The covid pandemic effects with masses of people buying up affordable travels over one week holiday again. The weather and old systems with affordable mass sales of tickets caught up with them. Southwest is an independent airline not with the additional support of trained and experienced people. I am sad people go through this. Perhaps now Travel Advisors with years of training and experience will be accepted again with the mainstream travelers looking for DIY (Do It Yourself). I have to confident speak self truth using a Travel Advisors. Southwest Airlines and other airlines may choose to bring back trained and experienced Travel Advisors (Agents).

Kyle Potter, editor-in-chief of Thrifty Traveler, has tips for the tens of thousands of travelers affected by cascading delays and cancellations on Southwest Airlines flights.

At least 13 U.S. air travel websites, including those for Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and Los Angeles International Airport — two of the busiest airports in the country — were inaccessible Monday morning after a Russian hacktivist group named them as targets for cyberattacks.

There is no indication that any airport operations were affected, and the type of cyberattack the hackers claimed to use doesn’t do any lasting damage. But it was a sign of how an increasingly effective pro-Russia group, Killnet, can cause mischief for U.S. websites. Last week, Killnet targeted the websites of several U.S. states, successfully knocking Colorado.gov offline for more than a day and briefly interrupting Kentucky.gov.
