Any idea on how long the Government Shutdown will delay ETOPS certification for these Hawaii flights?

I doubt anyone can answer that. Standing by to stand by.

I Luv working at SWA, but objectively, it’s biggest flaws of late are a certain arrogance, and making certain processes difficult. There is no need to constantly re-invent the wheel on things. That said there are many thing SWA gets right IMO. AT was functionally disfunctional. It was a decent place to work with lots of good folks. Why are there still haters 7 years on? Let it go. Move on life is too short.

So, when the gov re-opens, are we first in line at the FAA for the table top exercises and proving flights??

If certification had taken a few months, we would’ve been operating HI long before the shutdown. Lessons learned.

What’s the lesson? Start the process three years ago instead of two?

Definitely the best place to ask this question is on this forum.
