## Resource

Sun Country Airlines, now under Allegiant ownership, is cutting nearly a third of its flights out of Minneapolis-St. Paul this September—primarily leisure routes to LA, Phoenix, and Orlando—due to a pilot shortage. Despite recent acquisition and growth plans, the airline cites high pilot departures and rising cargo demand as reasons, calling the cuts temporary. Passengers are being offered refunds or rebookings. Pilot unions warn of instability, while MSP officials say the impact is short-term. No schedule changes are planned for October through December, as September is typically slower travel season. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
