Sounds like an expensive day for Delta. I assume they sent another airplane on a rescue mission? Also, this lady is really trying to talk up cold bay. I used to fly there and there's probably 2-3 flights in and out of there a day, if that, and the international traffic would only be diversions which is pretty rare. That being said, CDB is a pretty good option if you have to set down on the Aleutians, there's probably the best support available there of anywhere in the near vicinity.
