already gotten your postal mail today?
looks like the USPS fails again, tracking not showing in SFO area yet...

This addresses one of my biggest gripes about the SDC and EWR. If you fly out of EWR, you know full well that on most days, you just show up at the airport around your usual time and take the next flight out to your destination, as it's almost always backed up by at least one. With the SDC, you have to fight to get them to call it irrops because more than likely your orignal flight still shows on-time even though you know full well based on the pda site and the faa site that its going to be 3 hours late, but they won't update it until after the earlier option has departed.

A big ^ to them if they are realizing that if EWR in general is problematic on a given day, that its better to issue a blanket waiver than to make everything flight specific.

They've been doing that fairly often for a few months now. They've done free changes at IAH also over the last few months on days when there were bad thunderstorms.

I remember seeing the D10 at SFO when it regularly flew IAH-SFO, too. :(

At EWR? This is the first time I've noticed it here.

I just thought it was amusing that the waiver is for high winds when winds cause delays at EWR almost daily. :)

They've done it a few times during ATC delays in the last few months.

It's actually a good thing IMHO.

Haha. This is a new one for me, when selecting flights between LGA and YYZ on Air Can:rolleyes::rolleyes:k:


Please note flights to/from New York, LaGuardia are delayed at times by Air Traffic Controllers due to traffic congestion or bad weather. Please allow extra time to reach your destination.

I think we need to wire bulkheads with tazzers and shock peoples feet.
