Indeed; trans-atlantic was a mess today. Out of BRU, flights were going either nearly polar or south to Spain and across via the Azores. Either way, adding several hours in each direction. BRU-JFK clocked in at 9:13 takeoff to final!

It doesn't help that JFK is also a disaster this evening due to winds, so lots of very unhappy pax. 155 (LAX-JFK) just returned to the gate and dumped all the pax thanks to the new 3-hour rule. What a great win that was.
