I hope this doesn't affect anyone; sounds like its gonna be tough to get a refund.

Not at all surprising but still unfortunate. I only flew them once but had a very positive experience and would have done so again in the right situation.

I feel for those who have outstanding reservations or, even worse, are stuck far from home!

Same!

I know several people who had awful experiences (like 2 days of delays, etc) but lots who had a good experience. Either way I feel horrible for people who got stranded.

Oh man. That sucks for people booked & especially those still on vacation!

I worry this will happen to Norwegian.

That would be too bad — I had a great experience on Norwegian less than a year ago, much better than Wow. And they’ve added a lot of direct flight options from the Bay Area (Oakland specifically) to Europe, which has been nice. SF has decent international options but we pale in comparison to LAX.

But, yeah, they’ve been hurting as well.
