It said the nationwide spike in omicron cases this week has had a direct impact on its flight crews and the people who run its operations.

It said it's notifying customers of the cancelations ahead of them coming to the airport.

United apologized for the disruption and said it's working hard to rebook as many people as possible and get them on their way for the holidays.
