US Flight diverted after disturbance

A passenger who would not sit down prompted a US Airways flight en route Monday from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Reagan Washington National Airport to be diverted to Dulles International Airport, officials said.

Gotta be Y because I believe that US is still running DCA-PIT with Shuttle craft.

I was on US 424, DTW-PIT-DCA, on Sunday night and it was a regular ol' 733.

I flew back to DCA from PHL yesterday and, standing on the Metro platform, wondered what all the Jersey barriers around the US Airways Arrival and Departure street entrances were for... (and yes, my flight was less than 30 minutes in duration--they gave everyone a chance to use the lavs before takeoff since people wouldn't be able to get up in mid-flight).

The Jersey Barriers at DCA on the roadways are to protect the control tower/FAA faclities located in the center of the building. They have been there since 9/12.
