trixiee Posted January 7, 2014 #51 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Toronto International (Pearson) was shut down completely for 2 hours. [url]http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/pearson-airport-scene-of-massive-backlog-from-weather-woes-1.2486668[/url] They had to call in the police to calm down the crowds, who couldn't get their luggage, as the ground crews weren't allowed outside to off-load the planes in the extreme cold. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GmaPajama Posted January 7, 2014 #52 Share Posted January 7, 2014 [FONT="Comic Sans MS"][SIZE="4"]I'm not leaving for a couple of weeks, but I do use O'Hare - which is always dicey in the winter. I've checked my same flight number the past few days, and it's been no more than 45 minutes late. Probably helps that it comes in from San Jose, but it makes me hopeful. If they can get out in this mess, they can most likely get out in whatever mess there is when my time comes. (Knock on wood, twice).

Something doesn't sound quite right with that...why only JetBlue? Our flights are around the same time as yours...what day are you flying in? Maybe we can get together for dinner![/SIZE][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best thought was employee fatigue...we do want to know the planes have been properly de-iced.:o Sent from my GT-P3113 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
