737-900 lga?
Looking at EmployeeRes I am seeing 737-900s listed for LGA ops next week. I could swear I saw a no-joke NOTAM prohibiting 737-900 ops in LGA earlier this year.
Any info? Will it go with empty seats? My vacation plans thank you.

I don't see the big deal. We fly the 900 into markets with short runways all the time. ORD is a hub with 7500' runways. Of course you won't be doing any transcons but those aren't allowed anyway. What am I missing?

Nothing. 'Stretch Guppy' landing on a runway less then 11K still causes a few to react like social media trolls to trending twitter stories. Hint hint check Delta's ATL-LGA daily schedule...

I was referencing the FAA Notam forbidding 900s earlier this year.

I fly the -900ER into LGA regularly for Delta. The only two destinations I'm currently aware of are ATL and MCO. Also, I have yet to be in a weight restricted situation. Always doing high thrust and flap settings, however.
