Post-Holiday Travel Chaos Amid Covid Surge
🇺🇸🇺🇸america welcome to my country🇺🇸🇺🇸
🐡🦇🐍🌚china get out to my country
We don’t need lockdowns and we don’t need vaccines we need fresh air, healthy eating and freedom enough of this
NBSC.
Glad I stayed home
Let’s go Brandon
LET’S GO KAREN!!!
@Randy’s Crafts 👈👈🌈🌈🍐🍐🍓🍓🍋🍋🍊🍊❄❄🦋🦋🦄🦄
Wherever you’re at you must stay cuz we don’t want ya back spreading the covid. Your travel plans are cancelled! BOOM!
The “Greatest Country” in the world has one of the poor healthcare systems for its citizen.
There is no cure so Healthcare is moot but go ahead and get your 87 shots plus 87 boosters
A little blood letting, leaches and praying is all some wish to do. Darwin award winners. Imho
This is not the greatest country in the world. Why are you people so delusional?
Fear is the virus It’ll be like this until the house and the senate votes are over big scam
Fear-is-a-liar
At-the-white-house
That-controlling
Humanity?
I’m absolutely positive the 4th shot will solve everything. If not then certainly the 5th and 6th will.
But, I swear, if the 7th doesn’t get us get us back to normal then I’m defiantly going to reconsider getting my 8th.
@Face Diaper Covid: I have nothing else better to do.
@World Television Very cleverly done and may I add ‘well thought out. So what you’re typing is misinformation, got it 👍/s
👏 👏 👏
At that point it’ll be the Megatron variant, and you will not defeat it.
@Timothy1976 You need to send that to Joe Biden hes famous at pledgerism
I stayed at home for the holiday season. From now on, I will only travel in the warmer months only.
Had people stayed in their own country there would be no variants
@silent majority That’s not how that works. Vaccines that don’t give you immunity on the other hand are a good way to create a variant.
@ProfezorDon Vaccines do cure.. Like polio I only had to have one shot back in the 50s Nobody with a brain is buying your NWO vaccine This is about control.. Only lawful citizens under scrutiny while our borders are wide open.. We now have to get new ID to fly and now they want covid IDs Fthat Your need of Turbans caused TSA searches
Flying commercial is for the peasants. Us elites fly on private jets.
When will
This be over
When people turn back to God.
Never or at least not till the new world government is established
Covid: I’ll let you know. Just keep doing what you’re doing. No need to look at what I’m doing so mind your own business, neighbor. /s
@Jason Torres Covid: Have you met my friend, cousin, from Spain, delightful old chap, turns 104 next month. 🖖
Never! America has entered its first stage of plagues.
All the vaccinated catching, spreading but they PROBALY say it’s the ” unclean unvaccinated, that woukf BE i, ull wait for the ” Z ” VARIANT SHEEP
Planned.Listen to the hype. Then repeat it out loud. A life lived in fear is a life not worth living.
Say that to my co-worker who just lost her 35 yr old cousin to Covid in Eastern KY leaving behind 3 small children!
@Debra Smith I’ve lost 5 friends to it and you know what? I’m not going to live in fear. If I go I go it is what it is that’s life. The people of this world are stupid anyways. If it took me it’d be doing me a favor
@Debra Smith 4 out of every 5 covid hospitalizations/deaths overweight and or obese. Eat healthy my friend.
@jc77f 95% hospitalizations/ deaths overweight 50+ and unlined health issues
Kentucky 5th most obese state at 36.6% 2020
I’m suppose to get on a plane on Jan 2nd. I’m seriously considering driving instead. But it’s roughly a 20 hour drive. Would have to stay in a hotel and break it up into 2 days if driving. 😩 😣 😒
@Alec Baldwin You seem to be uncomfortably familiar with the process. Victim or purveyor…both? 😉
@Just Say’n do biden’s Daily Dementia highlights make you laugh?
3 channels on toob are competing to show his highlights, even though biden’s handlers don’t let electronic devices near him
@Alec Baldwin I was discussing your wealth of seemingly personal experience, are you projecting other medical conditions you’re worried about? Perhaps you should seek medical advice from someone else besides media or the internet? Make sure you inform your medical professionals of your family’s history, just my advice. 🖖 /s
WHY drive and stay in a hotel, you mite as well get on the flight wear two mask and gloves don’t touch your eye’s and face keep your air vent on. When you get off plane spray yourself with disinfectant spray (your clothing) that touched seats. Get home wash you face and nostrils and avoid close contacts. Stay on top of your supplements. Drink a ton of water and oj even if your not sick. Hotels and cruise ship are the worse. You should of kept your butt😣at home driving is to stressful on your immune,so now you just gotta bite the bullet.😳
When’s the fear mongering going to come to an end
YOU TRAVEL!!!!!!!!!
☀️🐺🌙🐺🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I think that Patient Zero became deeply infected by an animal’s virus, because this person was in close contact with an animal.
American Airlines isn’t doing anything about there issue’s!!
Restore the vote to the people. Even 41% of Democrats believe the 2020 election was rife with fraud.
Covid vaccine are fake?
Yep pilots and flight attendants on the plane with all those 200 passengers coughing and spreading the “O” no one to press go in the jet. Hmmmmmm things are getting ugly.🥴😳
YOU ALL THAT TRAVEL OR CLOWNS 🤡 GOVERNMENTS HAVING A VERY GOOD TIME SCREWING AROUND WITH WITH YOU GUYS’S MINDS AND YOUR LIVES !!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
O…….H N….O !!!! PEOPLE THERE’S THAT WORD AGAIN SURGE THERE’S A SURGE 😂😂😂😂 BACK TO LOCKDOWNS AFTER CHRISTMAS WAS OKAY AND ALL !!!!! 😂😂😂😂 IT’S GOING TO GET SO WORSE AND SO BAD WE’RE NOT GOING TO CELEBRATE NEW YEARS !!!!! 😂😂😂
Why would they need to cancel flights, aren’t people vaccinated? Don’t they work?
Exactly!
The airline industry needs to collapse. airliners flying to every continent on the planet every 24hrs is the single biggest transmission vector.
Most flights are cancelled bc of weather. Media spreading their lies.
at least we have diversity to go with our loss of civil rights
@Syncrotron9001 You seem like a fun an reasonable person.
If it’s in every state how is traveling unsafe?
Preventing more cases. Preventing hospital overload.
Trying to slow spread.
Travel has always been unsafe during pandemics. history proves it. Covid proved it. We always get a surge after major travel times.
@Azure’Ra Morganna so what if u get it you just gonna get 10 days and apparently it goes away 😂😂😂 after 10 days sounds very dangerous 😂
its all about control on 9/11 we traded freedom for diversity at any cost in 2008 we let libs equated enforcement of laws with racism
in 2020 we let libs call “wanting to live ” racist Lets all enjoy the warm fuzzy feeling of open borders and diversity at any cost
here’s the video of biden grabbing and smelling and fingering and caressing and pulling at little kyds
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8iCsIGRA7H8
The airlines owe the American people money for a bail-out that has not done anything but taken more money from the people
Follow the rules get the booster shot wear the mask it’s very simple
Okay 🐑 you follow the rules you obviously need another booster shot
5-18 548 out of 809,300? Educated?
As wipes got the first two shots then the booster and now told its not enough
@Winston Smith 1984
I am glad I been wearing my mask and staying safe. And still living my life 🧬
So ???
It’s two big storms, its going to be much more
No amount of family gathering that can justify trying to fly at Christmas
Good thing you have the freedom to stay home. Thank you for your sacrifice.
Yeah celebrate diversity infection for all
Happy Holidays
Official EU govt. statement : *”The long-term safety of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine is unknown at present”* – EMA Nov. 25, 2021
The unvaccinated claim there are no lines. It’s all fake news.
The only thing creating chao’s is the airlines cancelling flights. Omicron is taking the blame. The idiots in control are to blame.
Natural immunity is superior!
Ask Polio.
@Cliff Driver with the polio vaccine they use the virus to boost your natural immune system
@Cliff Driver mNRA isn’t the same, you need to do some research.
Is there an election coming up soon????????????
PEOPLE STOP LETTING THESE TYRANTS RUN YOUR LIVES!
The virus mutates and the vaccine doesn’t stop it, only lessons the severity. How do you think you can stop this virus with a vaccine?
The hope is to stop death. 2 years u and you’re still confused. LOL!!!
Two shots and endless booters, I’ll take my chances. Already served covid anyway, I’m not afraid .
Those are fake images. No way that many people are so stupid to walk into a situation that was so obviously coming. People just aren’t so stupid.
@jc77f that’s true but going to an airport during this stupid panic on a major holiday is just as stupid. Me I’m not going to live in fear but I’m still not going to fly on New Years Eve.
@Arthur BB but but but the Vax works
@jc77f I’m not worried about the vax or the virus. I’m just not going anywhere I’m going to be stuck there for 3 days.
@Leo Swath that’s true but any person with working brain cells would know that the fake panic would cause serious travel issues. I’m not talking about how potent the new strain is we agree on that. Just the stupidity to knowingly put yourself in that situation at airports.
https://youtu.be/KDrUx5o6fYk
You’re all brain washed
People should just stay home, I mean there will always be a next time.
Dont count on that..
The boogie man delta virus is here,,ahh help us all,,nobody is vaccinated..not even one person,,run for the hills were all going to die,,… do you really believe everything you hear 👂 on the news?
Scaremongering for repeatedly selling vaccines. Next variant to be released in India right?
Only minor symptoms and no symptoms due to the so-called Omicron variant still WHO, Pharma Mafia, Media and Govt is busy scaring people. Why? They have to sell you masks, sanitizers, immunity boosters, vaccines, do covid test and more. They won’t let this once in a century opportunity pass on easily. Turn off media and focus on your work. 🙏🙏🙏
NBC 👎 disgusting
We know it’s NOT GONE!!!
Don’t weap for the Stoopid…
You’ll be crying all day.😷
Too much money and power to be gained by keeping this going. Don’t worry about the airlines, there’s the build back better with trillions of tax dollars to bail them out
Having a omicron virus has an upside…the vaccine dies not work and mother nature finally gets to create herd immunity to put an end to this never ending planed pandemic that did teach the world to become a service economy and to appreciate freedoms
What a bunch of garbage. I work for an airline at SFO, not one flight is cancelled bc of omicron. Fake news spreading fear.
THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT DEAD FLU VIRUSES IN YOUR LYMPHATIC SYSTEM FROM THE PAST THAT YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM HAS DESTROYED. AND EVERYBODY HAS GOTTEN THE FLU. IN THE PAST.
A big thank you to the MSM for keeping up the fear, anxiety and deception.
You wanted diversity You got it
https://youtu.be/GrN7eW2OSWw
And you… Don’t forget to thank yourself for keeping the paranoia and fear alive 👏👏👏
@Comrade Pickles
Me? I couldn’t give an F, but I don’t like what it’s doing to young skulls full of mush and easily impressionable. If you have young children you’ll understand.
@silent majority
You missed the sarcasm
The Fauci variant is the most deadly to date.
“western-virus”
“Repeat a lie often enough, it will become the truth.”
-Joseph Goebbels
It works for Donald Trump 🙄
@Steve Bigley remember when biden said he would cancel student debt. Remember when he said there would be no mandates. Remember when he said of you take the shot you won’t be able to catch or infect people with the koof. No more masks or social distancing. Why r u obsessed with Trump they’re both garbage and it obviously didn’t work for Trump he lost…
Hard to decide which is less believable – Fauci or the fake news media
I hope these people contract Omicron. You are adults, you know the danger, so don’t be surprised if you did contract it. America could do less with irresponsible Covid-spreaders like them.
The news is the virus
To be clear the vaccine mandates are the only reason these flight delays happened
None of this could have happened
during the cold war and segregation
F.. ” Covid”
I think driving is better than going on a plane!
I WILL BE THE DISLIKE BUTTON
Post-Holiday Travel Chaos Amid Covid Surge
KARMA!!
So airplanes are catching covid?
protest ……..tyrany 2021 12 27 2021 11 minutes ago

This is crazy.
We could have stopped this day 1. But we all chose to be fools. This is our reckoning everyone. This virus will wipe us all out. Maybe not next year or the year after that, but it will. The Earth will be cleansed of us all. We will breathe our last. And frankly… we deserve every last second of it, for being so foolish.
Oh chicken little aren’t you tired yet?🤪
See what living in Fear does to continuity of society! Not an accident
No. What has fueled the chaos are dumb vax mandates that have resulted in staffing shortages for the airline industry.
I can’t believe that anyone would even CONSIDER flying for pleasure under the present conditions.
We don’t care, just saying.
Get vaccinated. Wear masks
Glad i stayed home and spend some time to myself. Nothing like clearing your thoughts and watch some anime on tv
As the deaths increase, Biden fights for hundreds of billions to build bridges and roads, and combat climate change. How about building a hospital or clinic in each state? China is building hospitals!
BIG Dummies😜should of stayed home.
#ConvinceItForward
It was a false alarm, we see now Omicron is not at so dangerous as you had us believe
And people still believing theses lies…
In Canada no one can fly unless they are fully vaccinated, including on domestic flights.And our vacination rate is about 90%.Yet in the US unvaccinated people are still allowed to travel.No wonder the country has so many cases of Covid19.When will America smarten up.Covid will not go away without the necessary action of getting vaccinated.Travel is a luxury for most people,not a necessity,and certainly not during a pandemic,of both an actual disease and stupidity.
the people have something to fight for. the fear mongering terrorists of the binladen regime do not. we will win in the end.
BS surge and govt’s illegal mandate response= flight crews protesting leading to cancelled flights.
yuk, gross. stay home. humans are amazing at suppressing basic survival instincts.
I have a question do we still need to download apps if we got it all the apps then you’ll get the virus from Melwere
Malware is a computing system when you get the all the apps then you’ll get coronavirus and then die yep
US government should consider vaccination requirement for domestic travel, Fauci says. Interpretation? We do not want to reward the intelligent disobedient who think they can escape. They need to know that we will rule their lives
The airlines cry about losing business, now covid isolations are shorter. If these cases aren’t mild, then expect civil unrest. 🙄 😤
Whom Can We Trust If No One Is Trustworthy?
One of my favorite quips from Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is when Tom is defined as “a glittering hero…the pet of the old, the envy of the young,” and there were “some that believed that he would be President, yet, if he escaped hanging.” With these few words, Twain captured the essence of leadership in our world. Those who get to the top are the fiercest, most determined, and most ruthless. Today, the latter quality has become so intense that we can no longer believe our leaders, and certainly not trust them to have our best interest in mind.
I am not accusing any leader in particular, or even leaders as a whole. It is simply that in an egoistic world, where people vie to topple one another on their way to the top, the one at the top is clearly the one who trampled over and knocked down more people than anyone else. Concisely, to get to the top in an egoistic world you have to be the biggest egoist.
So how do we know whom to trust? We don’t know and we cannot know. All we know is that we are in the dark.
In a culture of unhinged selfishness, any conspiracy theory seems reasonable, while truth is nowhere to be found. When every person who says or writes something is trying to promote some hidden agenda, you have no way of knowing who is right, what really happened, or if anything happened at all.
The only way to get some clarity in the news and goodwill from our leaders is to say “Enough!” to our current system and build something entirely independent. The guiding principle of such a system should be “information only,” no commentary. Commentary means that information has already been skewed. Information means saying only what happened, as much as possible, not why, and not who is to blame and who we should praise.
Concurrently, we must begin a comprehensive process of self-teaching. We have to know not only what is happening, but why we skew and distort everything. In other words, we have to know about human nature and how it inherently presents matters according to its own subjective view, which caters to one’s own interest. To “clear” ourselves from that deformity, we must learn how to rise above our personal interest and develop an equally favorable attitude toward others. This is our only guarantee that our interpretation of things will be even and correct.
Once we achieve such an attitude, we will discover that the bad things we see in our world reflect our own, internal wickedness. Our ill-will toward others creates a world where ill-will governs, and so the world is filled with wickedness and cruelty. Therefore, all we need in order to create positive leadership—and to generally eliminate ill-will from the world—is to generate goodwill within us. When we nurture goodwill toward others, we will fill the world with goodwill. As a result, the world will fill with kindness and compassion. By changing ourselves, we will create a world that is opposite from the world we have created through our desires to govern, patronize, and often destroy other people.
I first got COVID Nov 2020, Got 2 doses of Pfizer and was one of the first to get boosted at the end of August as a health profession student- and I still got COVID again, tested positive today with symptoms starting on Christmas
Flyers in the 90s; ” I do vitamin C, Zinc & Echinacea for viruses with recycle air” flyers in the 20’s; ” Is my right to die flying”, sad.
Heck yes
Nice.
Lol 🤣 really.
