American Airlines, citing a shortage of pilots, says it will stop flying to four small cities in New York, Ohio and Iowa

, which comes after several airlines shed aviators during the pandemic only to be caught flat-footed when travel demand snapped back.

Holly Kemler, spokeswoman for Eugene F. Kranz Toledo Express Airport, said the airport staff "are incredibly disappointed" by American's decision. "Please note, this decision was made solely by the airline, primarily due to a shortage of regional pilots," she said. "Unfortunately, we understand this is a current continued trend in the aviation industry."American Airlines said the cities will still be served by flights at other airports that are between 45 miles and 120 miles away.

United has cut flights in Newark. American Airlines admits to shortage of pilots. Cuts flights. Hmm.

So much for people priced out of big cities moving to Ohio and Iowa...

Pilots they fired. For no real reason.

But we were told dropping the vaccine mandate would make air travel all better!!1!! 🫤

Because of vaccine mandates? Gee who saw that coming. This administration is completely inept.

gosh, it's almost like forcing pilots to receive experimental injections known to cause blood clots has backfired & left them with a bunch of employees physically incapable of flying who could have guessed?!

Jet fuel around $12 per gal

couldn't have anything to do with lifting the mask mandate, huh?🤪

Maybe just re instate the freaking mask mandate for air travel

biden's to blame

Great my Grand Aunt Elvert lives in Iowa how am I ever supposed to see her again clowns

There is no shortage of pilots. There is a shortage in pilot pay.

Dammit Russia!

Shouldn’t have forced the jab

Evanston’s Greenwood Beach closed for summer, city cites lifeguard shortageGreenwood Beach in Evanston closed for season due to staffing shortages. POTUS haven't you been bragging about the hiring boom? Where are all of the new hires? I routinely visit a beach not far from where I live. It is a public beach. There are no life guards. It is the ocean. People continue to swim and many of them survive. Quit coddling people. No lifeguards, swim at your own risk. Too much drama.
