Flight Schedule Revised May 3—June 5

We began publishing a new flight schedule today for travel May 3–June 5 that reduces flight activity almost uniformly across the airline by more than 40%, to approximately 2,000 flights a day. The cuts proactively address significantly lower passenger demand, operational disruptions, and the ongoing suspension of our international service. The overall demand for travel remains fluid during this ongoing pandemic and we continue to evaluate further reductions. By making a published change to our planned flight activity, we’re giving our Customers more time with any changes that affect them.

During this time, we are maintaining passenger service to every city we serve, moving cargo around the country, and facilitating our Customers’ essential travel between nearly every city-pair we previously offered. Some journeys that had been nonstop might now require a same-plane stop or a connection. This scheduling change merely takes forward in time work that is removing roughly 1,500 flights a day from our current operation.

We don’t have city-specific or market-specific information to share. Customers who already have booked travel that will be affected by changes will receive updates and will be offered additional flexibility within our existing policies for flight changes in the COVID-19 environment.
