Commuting out of ORF just got hard. Every JFK bound RJ flight cancelled and half the LGA ones too.

I mean, they own edv and staff the c tower exec management with dl people. You put that much work in, wear the badge even if it's a little one.

IIRC the old EAL Shuttle advertised that if a flight oversold by even one, they would roll out a spare plane. Small loss on that flight, but big profit on revenue premium from “must get there now” HVCs.

I remember us rolling out a spare 72 when the first one filled up over at the MAT when we had the Airport Standby provision in the PWA for the Shuttle operation.

The ol' sleep till you're hungry then eat till you're sleepy QNY program.

And I am still convinced it was a violation of the Geneva Convention to put that damn Cinnabon right by the lounge (closet?) in DCA.
