So I'm going to guess lots of you here were stuck at one airport or another Tuesday because of the radio outage in Southern California. Everyone at the airport was reasonable and patient, and that definitely made the night much easier to be on my side of the desk. Thanks to anyone who was at SFO.

At SFO, we just had a few flights return to the airport shortly after takeoff, and many other were delayed during the indefinite ground stop. We were spared receiving all the diversions that PHX or DEN seemed to be getting at least. Things finally started to leave around 9p, and the airport was quiet again by midnight.
