Why don't these stations get JETWAYS???? Hope they do sue. God knows they pay enough for the ticket(s), then we expect them to walk down the steep airplane stairs and hope they don't brake an ankle, leg or their neck, and let's not forget how they are all rushing to get off the plane down these stairs.

CAE is really bad with the use of their jetways. They'd rather park you 500 feet from the terminal and have passengers walk outside in a torrential rainstorm. An incident like this was bound to happen in a place like Columbia.

That's about right. Anyone know why they won't use the jetways at CAE?

At that point it's up to the PIC to determine whether or not it is safe to de-plane. Simple as that.

FWIW, people are often killed by lightning well ahead or behind the storm...when it is seemingly safe to be outside. I certainly wouldn't blame the crew for this.

Door was open. Engines shut off.
Not one crew member was getting paid at the time. If they want us to be responsible for Pax, then pay us. How can you be held responsible when you weren't on the clock? The only people who should be held responsible are the gate agents and ramp.

They are. They deemed it was safe to deplane. If it wasn't then they wouldn't be outside marshaling them in. They take responsibility once the passenger leaves the plane.

And this sums up the American Airlines customer service folks.


A woman trips and falls on the last step on the plane....seafeye cold stone say "biacth" I ain't getting paid my $$, help yourself up.


Are you on the clock when the doors are shut ready for push? Don't you guys need 10ft? So the apu catches on fire, so you aren't getting pAAid...so you would just not be responsible?



And furthermore, who has better meteorological knowledge? The pilots or the rampers? Hmmm yeah could be close for you psa chums

They have the jetways and elect NOT to use them!!!! ***. this could've all been prevented if they would've used the jetways.
