The weather in SDF was not really a factor...but 2-3 hours late going to the west coast cannot be blamed on anything but MR Peak again screwing up projections royally.
With the lack of lift (again) biting UPS in the butt, I foresee payments similar to IST being made to crewmembers to make up for management's shortsightedness and incompetence. I only hope the EB can make ups pay a lot more dearly for this contractual violation.

I don't have a dog in your fight, but it's good to hear that SDF was a cluster this Christmas. Two packages sent Next Day Air Saver were left behind Friday morning in SDF that were supposed to be hear by Friday for Christmas gifts for my wife. We were finally informed late Saturday night by UPS (after speaking with multiple supervisors) that our packages were left behind and now won't get here until after Christmas.
