I'll give them a break as far as last Friday or even the ice events, but when there is not a cloud within 2000 NM of Atlanta and another crew is running 20 minutes late and they reroute you that is total BS.

I am not sure what the advantage to a single MEC might be, but some might say it clouds the issue of "class and craft" should an express carrier seek a merger with a mainline carrier via a petition for Single Transportation System finding.

The company that runs crew accommodations needs to be replaced, and these jobs need to be brought in house.
Wrote it up and told Chief next day, I will never push again without rooms on the rotation... no more promises that it will be done by the time we get there.
Turned down 3 late night GS offers last Friday because I was not about to repeat the above. (From what I heard about this after, sounds like I made the right call. Btw, all 3 flights cancelled due to lack of pilots.)
They need to fix this crew tracking/accommodation problem ASAP!

As much as it pains me to say it, looks like a 717 base for NYC. Just announced on Twitter: Shuttle operations to be moved from the Marine air terminal to terminal C at LGA and will be operated by the 717.
So much for a west coast base
