90 flights cancelled today because a few snowflakes fell in Seattle. Alaska outsourced the de-icing program to the lowest bidder, and our rampers aren't even trained in deice ops anymore. A bunch of planes apparently weren't sprayed correctly and launched contaminated and the entire program was shut down...
You would think Alaska learned their lesson last winter with the deicing FUBARs we experienced in PDX and SEA...but no, now it's even worse.
It's the beginning of November and it's already snowing, this winter is going to be BRUTAL
