5/21 AA169 LAX-NRT took a 6-hour trip to nowhere, returned to LAX due to MX; now delayed 17h to 0530 local tomorrow
5/22 AA170 NRT-LAX delayed 17h due to above shenanigans 5/21 AA127 DFW-PVG returned to gate and subsequently delayed 7.5h due to MX/crew availability 5/21 AA86 ORD-LHR delayed 2.5h due to MX 5/21 AA42 ORD-VCE delayed 1h and counting due to MX 5/21 AA754 PHL-CDG cancelled due to MX 5/22 AA755 CDG-PHL cancelled due to above MX (another costly one for AA...) 5/21 AA734 PHL-MAN delayed 1h and counting due to MX 5/21 AA758 PHL-ATH delayed 1.75h due to MX 5/21 AA718 PHL-FCO delayed 4h and counting due to MX 5/21 AA258 PHL-LIS delayed 1h and counting due to MX |

5/22 AA718 PHL-FCO delayed 2.75h and counting due to MX (second day in a row)
5/22 AA160 ORD-ATH delayed 2.25h due to MX |
Not sure if it's been mentioned up-thread, but this is a good resource to monitor potential union-related delays and cancellations.
https://flightaware.com/live/cancelled Personally, I'm going to be surprised if the conduct continues (at least at the level we saw earlier this week). Courts have been very harsh on these illegal slowdowns, fining unions and their leaders. Tuesday's data just reeks of illegal conduct. We'll see what happens. |
I've heard that there were "strange" cancellations at ORD last night on the int'l flights. I'm not seeing anything (yet) today. I also have not heard anything more about the lawsuit. It usually takes just a few days for the airline to get a preliminary injunction and. by their actions, the union is setting themselves up to be severely spanked by the court. I'm actually surprised that any slowdown has continued, if it fact that is the case. They're risking millions of dollars of liability, including personal liability to the union leaders. That tends to encourage the participants to behave themselves. :)

How does this uphold in the court? Can't the mechanics find almost anything to not sign off on at any given time?

a. Everything coincidentally broke b. Why were the mechanics not doing their job before? |

Issue was stated as no crew |
RDU-LHR
Went MX about 1.5 hours before departure, with a one hour estimate. 45 minutes into that, another 3 hour delay tacked on. Will it go? We shall see... |
