Yep, just another reason to cancel flights, on Easter, of course.
And checking the weather, nothing unusual going on.

I am so ready to put these people on trial, and hang them. Is that the Right order? :biggrin:

As long as it gets the job done, order doesn't really matter.

I am not so sure about the fuel shortage. There is EXPENSIVE fuel, but not really any shortages.  I think this is a combination of lack of available flight crews (pick a reason --COVID, poor airline staffing and planning...) and airline scheduling software/hardware failures. Southwest and JetBlue both had outages last weekend.  Also, for most domestic flights, especially connectors from the city airports to the airline hubs, the same aircraft (and sometimes the same crew) flies multiple routes.  It doesn't take much of an interruption in the connecting flights to cascade into a big event... Just my 2cents worth :)
