It's not just Delta, Southwest Airlines is having a systemwide meltdown as they canceled more flights than any other airline.Avremel Turen, a second grade teacher from Crowne Heights, Brooklyn missed his Southwest flight to see his family in Chicago on Friday. Cheryl Senior shared a similar sentiment to Turen. She was looking forward to bringing her three year old daughter to the Philippines to meet her family for the first time."Christmas in the Philippines for us Pilipino people is a very big deal. Everybody prepares and does catering and a lot of good stuff and then we miss it. And it's been 7 years since I've seen my family back home so it's really really sad that we're been here for five days," Senior said.
