Well aren't you a mighty wind bag! This hurricane has been quite a pain in the everyday travelers "Derriere". As we see in the news approximately 20 people are left dead through this whole thing! Millions without power and much devastation to homes across some states in the US.
For Halifax its a waiting game on when and or if this hurricaine is really going to hit! Its extremely windy so maybe just maybe we will have a glimpse of her yet ;)
I thought I would take a look at the EWR "Newark" airport departure and arrival board just for some stats on how many flights were to go in and out today. To my amazement there were quite a few! To be exact...There were to be just under 1000 departures alone from that airport, all in which had the horrific word next to it in red letters "Canceled". Arrivals had approximately the same number and the same word next to it "Canceled". How many of them actually took off and landed? 3 in total!
I'm sure the calls today flooding through airlines toll free numbers were absolute mayhem! Not to exclude the number of passengers who wanted to speak with a supervisor as they thought it would get them off the ground any sooner!I can just hear it all now, ***Business meeting in 5 hours! ***You will get me in the air today! ***That is no excuse!...Now make it happen.
~ I just cant wait until the day I'm on schedule changes! Bring some spice to my headset.
A!
