It did.........when. I think it was pretty widely reported that B6 handled this past weekends weather very well. Preemtively canceling flights is very common in this business. I think we learned our lesson and we won't have a meltdown like Valentine's day again.

Here is just a sampling of what other carriers did this past weekend:


Southwest Airlines (LUV) canceled about 130 flights Sunday, mostly in the Northeast and Midwest. It canceled 40 on Monday.

Continental CAL canceled 70 flights around its system.

Gina Laughlin, a spokeswoman for Delta, said her Atlanta-based carrier canceled about 180 flights in the Northeast on Monday to avoid getting planes and crew trapped by winter conditions.

JetBlue canceled at least 68 flights Monday.

US Airways' (LCC) Morgan Durrant said his carrier had to cancel 387 flights Sunday because of weather conditions. Most of the problem, he said, involved Washington's Ronald Reagan National Airport.
