Alll righty then! :thumbsup20:
Give those brave souls a hand!


Needs to happen in every major airport across the USA.

I can't believe they tried to tell their customers that the cancelations were due to the weather.

what excuse would you have given, if you were the FAA/NSA

Exactly...and they look stupid and exposed.

Oddly enough, I wouldn't have.  I'd have told the truth.

No kidding.  How many times will these morons repeat the same mistake, before it strikes them that people have family and friends at their destinations who can take pictures and send them in real time?  

Just how freaking stupid ARE these people?  And they're in charge of airlines??!!  

And I'm not talking just airlines. These same sort of incidents happen in all venues - from department stores to mail carriers to ...well, weathermen. They screw up, make up some nitwit excuse, and it's either swallowed hook, line, and sinker, or just fades away.
In short, they get away with it, so why not?

IAC, do you think anything will come of this walkout? Or, that they'll just hire other comptrollers, and it'll be business as usual?

the truth matters not. the continual storyline is what loyalty is sworn to.

Now you know where my loyalties lie.

You have to be so careful with the 'news'. SO, i'm thnking, are these air traffic controllers protesting the vaxx mandate by the airlines/airports OR are they really just trying to break one off in De Santis.

Then i started thinking...if they were doing this to slap De Santis in the face the media would be all over it with kudos, snide remarks and congrats to the Air traffic Controllers.

But they aren't. SO...it's looking legitimate...AND i hear the pilots are planning something too.
