Silver Airways abruptly cancels all flights in Orlando Tampa also impacted

Tampa Bay, FLLocal News

Silver Airways has announced the cancellation of all flights in and out of Orlando International Airport, significantly impacting travelers over the weekend and into Monday. This decision comes amid the airline's ongoing struggles, having filed for bankruptcy protection last December. Passengers arriving at Orlando were met with empty counters, while Tampa International Airport also reported multiple delays and cancellations on the same day. The airline's recent financial troubles have raised concerns about its ability to maintain normal operations, and customers are urged to check their flight status immediately. Refunds will be processed for those who purchased tickets directly from Silver Airways, while third-party ticket buyers must seek refunds from their original booking sources.

An Orlando International Airport spokesperson confirmed that the cancellations were effective immediately following notification on Saturday afternoon. These sudden operational disruptions reflect the airline's precarious situation and have left many passengers in uncertainty. As customers navigate these challenges, the situation underscores the importance of staying informed about flight statuses and refund policies.
