**Southwest Airlines Resumes Flights After ‘Tech Issues’—Passengers Left Wondering If They Were Just Out of Coffee**
In a shocking turn of events, Southwest Airlines announced that flights have resumed after a brief hiatus caused by “tech issues.” Passengers, who were left stranded in airports across the country, were reportedly confused as to whether the “tech issues” were related to the airline’s software or simply a lack of caffeine in the break room.
“I thought they were just trying to fix the coffee machine,” said frequent flyer and self-proclaimed aviation expert, Bob “Jetstream” Johnson. “I mean, if you can’t get a decent cup of joe, how can you expect the planes to fly?”
The airline’s spokesperson, who insisted on being called “Captain Obvious,” explained, “We experienced some technical difficulties that were completely unrelated to our coffee supply. We assure you, our planes are not powered by espresso shots—though that would be a great marketing strategy.”
Passengers took to social media to express their frustrations, with one user tweeting, “I’ve seen tech issues before, but this is the first time I’ve been stuck in an airport long enough to consider starting a book club. Thanks, Southwest!”
In a surprising twist, Southwest also announced a new in-flight service called “Tech Support,” where passengers can call in to troubleshoot their own devices while flying. “We figured if we can’t get our planes off the ground, we might as well help you get your Netflix working,” said Captain Obvious.
As flights resumed, many passengers were seen boarding with a mix of relief and skepticism, clutching their carry-on bags like they were life vests. “I just hope the only turbulence we experience is from the snacks,” said one traveler, eyeing the pretzel packets suspiciously.
In the end, Southwest Airlines proved once again that when it comes to air travel, the only thing more unpredictable than the weather is their technology. So buckle up, folks—because flying with Southwest is always an adventure, even if it’s just a trip to the coffee shop!
