This diversion led to the amusing BWI-IAD flight. Flight time 21 minutes, direct route 45 miles (80 flown of course).
I flew out of IAD last night and aside from a number of delays (not mine), flight took off fine, but we leveled off for cruise at 24,000 to avoid the higher winds (in an A320).

It reminds me of the days before the easing of the flight distance restrictions for DCA. Some airlines would fly DCA to a short stop at BWI before continuing to a final destination outside the permitted range for DCA nonstops. I remember, in particular, flying DCA-BWI-DFW on AA.

STT-IAD diverted to BWI too
peculiar that the STT-IAD flight diverted to BWI too...other than that, I didn't see any other diversions into IAD for that day.

Nice. I was on SJU-IAD, but switched over to SJU-ORD yesterday.

DEN cancellations, 3/6/2017
There were a bunch of cancellations in DEN yesterday, due to windy weather. The reason for cancellation for my flight, DEN-RIC (UA5651), was ATC.

The funny thing: pilot announced we will be landing at 3.10 pm, App was showing 2.20 arrival and this time App was right - we landed about 2.20 and were at gate at at about 2.26.

My LAX-SFO flight is delayed, likely due to the heavy fog in LA this morning. Oh, the irony...

Due to WEATHER / LOW VISIBILITY, there is a Traffic Management Program in effect for traffic arriving Los Angeles International Airport, Los Angeles, CA (LAX). This is causing some arriving flights to be delayed an average of 42 minutes
