While some airlines had a few delays, including Alaska, American and Delta, no other airline canceled flights departing or arriving Oklahoma City on Tuesday.Ĭatie Clark and her husband made the short drive from Edmond to Will Rogers Tuesday morning, and received a notification when they arrived at 3:45 a.m. Southwest flights in and out of Oklahoma City were no exception to the cancellations, with the airline canceling 16 flights leaving OKC's Will Rogers World Airport and 15 flights heading to Will Rogers. By Tuesday afternoon, there were 2,992 flight cancellations nationwide, and 2,576 of those were Southwest flights, or 63% of flights it had scheduled. Southwest Airlines announced Monday it would operate around one-third of its flying schedule over the next several days.

Nearly a week since a deadly winter storm began ravaging the country and left many stranded at airports nationwide, one airline is still struggling to recover operations.
