I was invited to OLCI for my 0130 ex JFK flight to HKG On 2November will do so shortly that means CX metal will be coming in tomorrow for sure. As I see it the 1455 departure tomorrow will be the first out of JFK ( possibly delayed) with normal service thereafter.
I suspect there will be very limited catering, though. i should have booked via Vancouver :( |
CX 888 arrived this morning
It is November 1 - 7:26am New York time
Looking over the tarmac now (from Hilton JFK)... Spotted the CX 77W sitting at Terminal 7 CX 888 has arrived on time this morning. CX 841 will depart on schedule. Carfield |

As CX are advising on their website, arrive early as you may encounter delay or disruption due to unreliable ground transportation at this point. I don't think this will affect flight departure though. |

Im not, but to let you know CX846 has departed on time, so no problem.

I just boarded CX889. I'm 1/6 in F, so the backlog and open ups can't be atrocious.

EWR already are sending flights to Beijing yesterday, so it's good JFK is starting to send pax to Asia. I can't imagine the mess CX is in having to accommodate pax in the previous 10+ cancelled flights.
1. Excess capacity in ORD should be able to help out a lot. 2. If AA is involved in the reservation, some of those pax may not be able to make it to JFK as early as you think. 3. PANYNJ handles this very well - by proactively shut down the airports before. So no mess like LHR in the snow or HKG in typhoon. |

Saw this article: http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/11/...ing-a-concern/
Probably a bit over-hyped, but in short: Some domestic carriers have worried about fuel availability and are flying shorthaul flights in with extra fuel to do the turnaround. Since that isn't an option for ultra-longhaul operations like CX at JFK, the issue of whether there will be enough fuel probably factors high on the list of factors mgmt considers when decided to re-start operations. Just another piece of the irrops puzzle. |

There will probably be low demand for a while to and from JFK. Likely only New Yorkers will want to be coming back home, and out of towners wanting to leave. Meanwhile most business related traffic will not have started up yet.
