Spirit, American airlines had major flight delay problems Sunday and Monday.

Air travel in the U.S. is hitting new pandemic-era highs, and airlines are scrambling to keep up with the summer vacation crowds.

That is nearly 11,000 more people screened than July 18, and the highest number since Feb. 28, 2020, before the U.S. felt the full brunt of the pandemic. However, air travel was still down 17% on Sunday from the same Sunday in 2019. By midafternoon Monday, Spirit Airlines had canceled about 270 flights — more than one-third of its schedule — citing weather and “operational challenges.” That was after canceling one-fifth of its flights Sunday. The Florida discount carrier was “working around the clock to get back on track,” spokesman Field Sutton said.Unruly passengers continue to be a problem, according to a survey of flight attendants.
