NW is running a bare bones operation. Minimum staff on nearly all it's flights. If the crew didn't show up, it was probably because the flight they were supposed to come in on didn't show up or went illegal. NW is losing Flight Attendants by the hundreds. They refuse bring the furloughed Flight Attendants back to work. Besides, it could have been a lack of Pilot's.
