One of our codeshare partners that rhymes with can't handle winter ops in SEA,That's what happened. Plenty of deice trucks but not enough deicing reserves on RAPs yesterday. 2 near DOT3 busts. The SEA-YEG was a cancel last night and with the way DL has the schedule set up there is only one flight into YEG a day and it's super late at night. Im told the only other way to get people there is through Minneapolis. Meanwhile on the AA side in SEA,20 minutes out to off..

Now hold on a second. That would have just made too much sense.

Yeah, I guess so. We flew in Saturday night and had the whole day here on Sunday. Sounds like quite a SNAFU last night so the one flight we operate up here never made it which left us stranded. I hope things work out tonight...I’ve had my fill of this place.
