to you.
>>> well, hundreds of the
american airline pilots are
taking vacation this is
holiday season.
good for them.
you may not be taking a
vacation if a computer glitch
left thousands of flights,
without pilots.
>> "eyewitness news" reporter
trang do has more on the
scheduling snafu that caused
this mess.
she's live at philadelphia
international airport with the
details, good morning, trang
do.
>> reporter: good morning,
rahel and jim.
philadelphia international
airport is a hub for american
airlines so they operate
dozens of flights out of here
daily so with this shortage it
could result in thousands of
upset passengers come this
very busy christmas travel
season.
world's biggest airline has a
big problem, a scheduling
glitch allowed too many
american airlines pilots to
schedule time off at the end
of the year which could ground
thousands of flights for
people heading home for the
holidays.
>> real bad, holiday coming,
we have new years coming,
christmas coming so people
will be...
