Standby for another "Our Dismal Performance" email. :D

Seattle hasn't helped our cause much. Lack of gates and ramp congestion have been major issues up there along with the GDPs for the smoke from the fires. There was a flight last week that took an 8 hour delay because Seattle ops couldn't move the plane off the hard stand.

Also they are short manned with Rampers in SEA that really doesn't help!

Ya I heard a ramper went and dashed out of his job real quick.

Seattle is absurd. Even in clear and a million they start throwing 1+ hour flow times to every airport within 400 miles. Yesterday blocked 3:12 from Vancouver to Seattle just because they were down to 4 miles vis. The airport (ATC/gates/ops) can’t handle the growth that has happened.

It’s tough to hit D-0 when 50% of our launch flights get GDPs and then the 8am bank push back to be 32nd in line for takeoff :rolleyes:

Is this the opportunity to try and power move HR and let them know with hopes of getting my original date back?

If you would rather be with CPZ then yes. As Excargodog said, cancellations/changes happen so there is the possibility to move you into an earlier class. Ask for the person in charge or scheduling classes and politely remind him you’re hoping to get into a sooner class. It does happen.

Spokane to Seattle last week blocked 3:18

I wonder how our D-0 would've been if we kept the 6 170s in the east instead of "streamlining" on the west coast.

Probably about the same except we'd have guys cursing out LGA instead.
