I believe for the last week we're at or near 20,000 cancelled flights across all the big airlines in North America due to the weather.
None of the airlines have the capacity to makeup that kind of deficient and none of them have enough customer service people to help out that many people.
Why? because we all want the cheapest flights possible.

Yeah, unfortunately that many cancelled flights basically can't be made up. The amount of spare planes/crews/Airport capacity that would be required is basically double everything. Which is totally unrealistic given the few days a year it would be needed. Unfortunately this year it happened over Christmas vs a random week in January when there would be more spare capacity.
**fingers permanently crossed for my flight tomorrow**
