A MONTH ago, SWA said that 90% of their workers were vaccinated. They offered bonus pay. That number is now 96%. So the claim of a "sick-in" is absolute bullshit, unless you believe 30% (percentage of flights cancelled one day) were calling in sick out of solidarity with the 4%. That's laughable, and even Gary Kelly knows it isn't true.
United Airlines said Thursday that nearly 90% of its workers have received coronavirus vaccines, while Southwest Airlines — which does not mandate the shots — announced new bonus pay to workers who show proof of vaccination.

Southwest had 435 cancellations Monday, about 12% of its total flights, according to Flight Aware.
