Aviation expert Steve Cosgrove told WFAA on Sunday that Southwest Airlines was one of the hardest hit by the big winter storm last week.

"You’ve got a combination of weather, crews out of position," said Cosgrove, CEO of Dynamic Travel.

But the problems for the airline continued.

"Southwest runs a very tight schedule. They turn a plane in 20 minutes. You start getting planes and crews out of place, it’s tough to get them back in place. Northeast and the central with weather, they had fog in San Diego, weather in Seattle, weather hitting Denver. These are major operations," said Cosgrove.

The U.S. Department of Transportation's Office of Aviation Consumer Protection reviews and responds to the customer complaints and reviews. They have created a dashboard for travelers to check their rights, amenities and cancellations. Click here for more.
