Status: Cancelled trip
Routing: YVR-SEA-SJC-LAX-SJC-SEA-YVR
Dates: 3/19
Notes: Mileage run for double EQMs. Canceled when things got bad and doing a MR became a stupid idea

Status: Flown trip
Routing: YVR-SEA-HNL RT
Dates: Outbound: 3/17 (originally 3/23) Return: Supposed to be 4/22 but who knows at this point?
Notes: Trying to get to our place in HNL. Originally scheduled for 3/23, moved our flight up to 3/17 when there was talk of a domestic travel ban and/or border closure with Canada. We got in just under the wire but it was a bit of an ordeal. Diverted to KOA due to thunderstorms in HNL. No gate for us due to planes stuck there because OGG was closed temporarily due to an accident (a Cessna flipped over) so waited in the penalty box. Gate opened up but an incoming aircraft had crew on the verge of timing out so they took priority. Finally got a gate, refuelled and onto HNL. Again, no gate for us in HNL so back in the box for over an hour. All told, over 10 hours on the plane (for a 5.5 hour flight) but at least we were in F so it could have been worse. Now, no idea how we will get back to YVR a the end of April due to border closure and the inevitable cancelation or scaling back of commercial flights so the sage will continue.
