Folks I closed the other thread. With the chance of another storm, lets use this thread to report weather conditions & how US opns. are doing. Please keep it on this topic. Off topic posts will be removed & possible time out may be given.
 
Lots of "pre-cancellations" for Weds (including PHL-Europe!). Doing that seems to have worked fairly well last weekend, let's hope it goes well this time.
 
heard that BWI DCA and PHL may get up to 2 feet of snow, sounds like record breaking snow this winter.
 
Weds should be a good day for Amtrak in the NE corridor (assuming they will run). No US DCA-LGA shuttle flights. Don't know about DL.
 
My late afternoon 1 day was cancelled for today, TUE.

My a.m. first turn was also cancelled for WED. Afternoon turn still good, but I am to call before I head to the airport.
 
If my experience over the weekend is an indication of how this newly approaching is to be handled, then we should be fine over the next couple of days. OCC did an outstanding job. Kudos and keep up the good work! You guys are the best in the business! IMHO you always have been :up:
 
My parents were supposed to fly AVP-PHL-LAX tomorrow. US cancelled all of the AVP-PHL flights, but they are still confirmed on the 4:10PM PHL-LAX flight.

They are of course stressing out, because it is their nature to stress out even during normal operations. :lol: I told them to hire a driver to take them to PHL.

Today we received the following Operational Update from the Company concerning severe weather in the Northeast:

This is a Company Operational Alert Update for Tuesday, February 09, 2010:

Due to the severe weather that is moving into several of our cities we are operating under the “Severe Irregular Operation’ provisions of the working agreements.

This will be in effect through Thursday, February 11, 2010


Based upon the weather forecasts the following action plan has been put into place.

PIT snow starts now and ends around Noon Wednesday expecting 4-8 inches
No action plan required for PIT

We will operate the Eastbound Transatlantic tonight and will have a limited operation after 8pm tonight. No operation until 2pm Wednesday and after 2pm a limited operation for the rest of the night.


NYC snow starts 12-2am Wednesday ends 10-11pm Wed. expecting 12-18 inches

CLT – Will be operating as normal

We were told they canceled all the Europe bound flights on Wednesday.

Given the very light transatlantic loads nowadays, this should save the company a bundle of money and there should be little problem accommodating pax on the following days (with full airplanes.)

One question is are the express carriers who get paid on completion factor still getting paid for USAirways requiring them to cancel flights
