NYC has been eating airlines alive for decades… JetBlue 15 years or so ago in the winter, DL had some prolific summer NYC cancellation events pre Covid and again last year, and EWR seems to always be on the edge. When the tower closed during the cold snap this past Dec 24, we took it in the shorts then too.

is this meltdown worse than normal or does it feel worse because of the contract situation? Honest question.
