Southwest Airlines Co  said on Wednesday that all aircraft reinspections will be completed by the end of the night, and it expects normal operations the following morning.

It said 28 of 38 aircraft reinspections had been completed so far, and that the rest would be reinspected by the end of the night.

Southwest said earlier that it had grounded more than three dozen planes, cutting 4 percent of its scheduled flights, due to another glitch in ensuring safety inspections are completed. (Reporting by Ritsuko Ando; editing by Carol Bishopric)
