Agree, but why hasn't anyone asked the pilots?

The pilot's union is on the list I gave.
Aside from the union: because Southwest employs 8,500 pilots and they're not exactly all on linkedin or something.

You're just misinformed and wrong.
The union and airline say there's no strike or sick out (job action) because strikes and job actions are illegal under the Federal Railway Labor act. They are unsurprisingly denying doing anything illegal.

That explains why the union would lie. Why does it explain why the airline would also cover (lie) for them?
So, one possibility is that there's a fast conspiracy that involves NOAA, the FAA, Miami airport admin, air traffic controllers, Southwest, the pilot's union, etc.
The other possibility a few conservative commentators are talking out of their ass.
Sorry... this one just isn't that hard.
