who is handling ops in this situation for AS at BUF? AA, UA, DL?
Looks like combo of DL, AS flight crew, and on-site airport manager. The DL person said they can't rebook anyone since they're just "handling the situation on contract" so pax are being told to call reservations.
They also mentioned this plane won't be flying passengers "for a while", but emphasis could've been for benefit for the unhappy pax who wanted to know why we couldn't just refuel and continue to Seattle.
