Now American fails to schedule pilot holidays

[RooFlyer]

I thought it was 'typical' when Ryan Air 'forgot' to schedule pilot's holidays.

Now it seems that American has done the same thing ... over Christmas

Also here. (if pay-walled, google Glitch leaves American Airlines scrambling for pilots at Christmas)

I have two sectors with AA this month.

Overnight Myflights alerted me to a change. Seems to just be an equipment change at this stage and it could be unrelated. But it’s fingers crossed here.

I don't think Ryanair forgot anything. They'd screwed up their rostering overall, and were totally on the nose with their pilots. Forgetting the holidays was just MoL's way of lying about the true reasons for their problems.
