United Airlines has been suffering from its workforce over the course of this month, with the start of the year resulting in more than 3,000 staff testing positive for COVID-19.
This of course would probably have some factor on it still, but some countries have tight restrictions on travel still, hence why there are a lot of delays.
However, a lot of routes seem to be under a form of delay, which would be good news more for the Summer 2022 season.
This comes especially after what has been a rough Winter period.
