This is soo true.
I was hit by irrops on Thursday morning and 1k desk could find no alternate way to get me from EWR to anywhere close to CVG all day, in any class of service. There is NO capacity to absorb disrupted passengers, and many cancellations. It is bad.
I ended up renting a car and driving 10 hours to get home.



Wow. That's a bad day. A stark reminder that Global Services faces the same fate as the rest of us at EWR...
Hope it didn't mess you up too badly.
Put on
a special flight Monday night-UA3032. Came within a hair’s edge of CX. Finally took off 2.5 hours late. Captain was gracious in apologizing…said current state of affairs was worst he has seen in 37 years of flying
