Default What airline is flying the illegal immigrants

Was watching the recently posted August footage of the 737 unloading the illegal immigrants in Westchester NY. Which airline is this with the white body and dark blue tail?

“Under the cover of night.” SMH anything to spin it. It was at night because that’s how the schedule worked out. There was an iAero aircraft in DEN doing the same thing in the late morning a couple of weeks ago.

Airport security said they were not alerted to the flights arrival.

These are not "dumping illegals." They're repositioning flights.

DeSantis announced he'd ensure that any contractor who does these flights, doesn't get a contract with the State of Florida.

It was an idiotic, hollow, political statement. None of the operators doing these flights have a contract with the state of Florida, nor have they sought one.

The outrage over the DHS flights is fueled by ignorance and by the ignorant; those who don't know the purpose of the flights and make assumptions based on conspiracy theory and guesswork.

Help educate the ignorant and eradicate the ignorance. What is the purpose of the flights Mr.
