After a hectic holiday visiting family in Kansas City, Cynthia Hart was excited to get back home to Washington, D.C. But like thousands of Southwest passengers in Kansas City and across the country, Hart arrived at the airport and learned her flight Tuesday had been canceled. The airline said it would run about one-third of scheduled flights for the next few days to recover from operational challenges it has faced since Thursday’s winter storm. As of around 4 p.m., Tuesday, Southwest had canceled 81 flights, or 73% of its scheduled flights, going into or out of Kansas City International Airport, according to data on Flight Aware. The airline so far has also canceled 82 flights Wednesday and 50 flights Thursday traveling into or out of KCI, or 74% and 61% of its scheduled flights for those days, respectively.
