Checking into my new (actually habitable) hotel today, I ran into an AC crew of 4. Sort of surprised to see their day end in YCD by 2:30pm ... but I guess if it started at 5am or earlier elsewhere this makes sense. They were most amused by my exclaiming "Ooooh, airline crew!! Haven't seen your kind in ages, I don't know you, but know I miss you!"

*and yes, I am aware I am a dork - I'm not nerdy enough to know specifically what flight/aircraft they came off of, but I'm dorky enough that it made me happy to see them.

Glad to hear this hotel was open. Hopefully the AC crew didn't get their in the same roundabout way you did? That doesn't surprise me at all that their day would be over so early. Super short days have been common. I know a Jazz pilot who has had a lot of days where he deadheads to YVR, flies one turn (did YCD last week), and then deadheads home.

T-12 and I am finally done with everything I needed to do. This has been a very hectic Saturday. Good thing it's almost drink time.

A great review of the Virtual Do tonight from @Yhztraveller - "maybe now that I have nothing better to do, I'll join you guys more often" 🤣

I'd like to say that I was quoted out of context, but I wasn't!

Ditto! What a terrible snub!

Now I need to figure out why codfather 's mention didn't trigger an email to me ... I thought a mention used to do that ...
