Furious Airline Passengers Rage at Pete Buttigieg as They Face Holiday Travel Nightmare
The nation’s airlines continue their seemingly endless struggle with systematic dysfunction.
More than 2,000 flights were delayed in the advance of the pre-Fourth of July weekend, according to The Hill.
Many travelers took aim at Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg amid the cancellations, questioning his commitment to safeguarding the rights of air travel consumers.
One traveler recounted being stuck at the Denver airport for the entire weekend without receiving accommodation from United Airlines.
It’s 4:30am in the Denver airport. Cleaners are about now. Since Thursday, I’ve had 3 cancellations. multiple delays. and no accommodation. @united this is unacceptable. do better. @SecretaryPete @nytimes pic.twitter.com/xxstMp0dqK
