According to US Daily, they have contacted all employees from stations except Jackson, MS and they are all safe and accounted for.

Some airlines ran ferry flights down there to pick up station equipment and station employees and their families. Did US just leave the shop in place at MSY?

Hurricane Katrina has had a devastating impact on Gulf Coast communities, our employees and their families who work and reside there. Given the extensive damage to property and personal effects, US Airways has developed relief efforts to reach out to employees and communities affected by the devastating hurricane.
The US Airways Employee Relief Fund has been established to help support those employees who need assistance, the extent of which is not yet fully known. President and CEO Bruce Lakefield made the initial contribution to the Fund, which is being handled through Piedmont Aviation Credit Union (PACU).
“We are deeply saddened by the destruction brought on by this powerful hurricane. Our employees have expressed a strong desire to assist our colleagues who are personally affected and also to participate in overall relief efforts. We are moving to provide assistance as quickly as possible,†said Lakefield.
Employees who wish to contribute to the Fund may send checks (made payable to the US Airways Employee Relief Fund) to PACU, 3810 N. Liberty Street, Winston-Salem, NC 27105. Donations also can be made at any PACU branch in the following cities: Winston-Salem, Greensboro, Charlotte, Kenansville and Eden. Members of PACU can call 336-776-1700 (toll-free 800-433-7228) and choose Option 1 for member services, to request a transfer from a personal account to the Fund.
US Airways also established a Dividend Miles account, with a corporate donation of five million miles, to help the American Red Cross with hurricane relief efforts.
