Hmmmmm. Pax not going to be happy. Is this unprecedented?
reminds me of the Valentine's day ice storm of 07, I ended up with a free trip to Aruba because of it.
Jetblue also chartered planes from other airlines to move the backlog of people, my family flew a Ryan airlines B757 JFK-MCO
You weren't on the plane that sat on the runway for 9 hours I hope!Quote:

The funniest memory I have is after finally boarding the Ryan 757, carrying both sleeping kids, a car seat and bags, I dropped them into seats, my oldest daughter opens one eye looks around and asks "where are the TV's" I told her to go back to sleep.
We didn't take off till after 3 am and landed in MCO at 6am, it took over an hour to figure out how many pax were on the plane but at least we got there and didn't miss any of Disney.
