Any indication why so many annulments and crew scheduling problems this week?

Hi TSS, yesterday someone had suggested it could be a shortage of crews due to vacations. They finally had found a crew for Q327 yesterday & he had gone by Bangor at 4:21pm which usually means a later running Q326 for today.
