Southwest Airlines’ competitors cap prices to help stranded passengers
American, United and Delta among airlines putting ceiling on certain air fares after budget carrier’s mass flight cancellations
Several of Southwest Airlines’ competitors will place price-caps on travel to help the thousands of passengers stranded by the budget carrier’s mass flight cancellations this week. This news comes as the embattled air company said it had “no updates or adjustments to share” pertaining to its flight schedule on Friday.
American Airlines and United will implement a ceiling on air fares between certain cities, according to CNN. Delta has implemented “walk-up fare caps in US domestic markets”, a spokesperson for the carrier told Axios.
