Simple, it says dozens fo FLIGHTS were cancelled. Each piolet flys more than one flight, usually 2-3. Do the math, 21 piolets x 2 flights a day =42, which could count as dozens. Hense lashon rabim

Dozens? According to my math, 21/12 doesn’t even equal 2. So how do you say loshon rabim? (Unless of course it’s rounded off.)
