Flu Cancels Alaska Flights

Revelation 6:7,8 NCV When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!"8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse. Its rider was named death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill people by war, by starvation, by disease, and by the wild animals of the earth.

Twenty-four flights were canceled on Sunday and Monday after flu-stricken pilots and flight attendants working for Alaska Airlines called in sick.

According to Alaska spokeswoman Bobbie Egan, approximately 270 passengers were affected by canceled flights.

Off-duty pilots and flight attendants volunteered to work while their colleagues were out sick according to Egan.

The airline anticipates a less busy Tuesday, and says it probably won’t have to cancel any more flights due to illness.

  1. I saw this ONE time on the national news, on the crawl at the bottom of the screen. This news is very very important! Another example of the greed and uncaring notions of our nation. Very very sad indeed! Kathryn Schneider
