OMGWTFBBQ: Oh My God, What the F*ck, Barbecue (yes, it is barbecue)
It is pretty much mocking the acronyms out there, or used is used in the context of a very hyper OMG WTF.
Gotham, I don't know what other airlines are painted in blue and white, and what Phil has to do with it. I'm very confused on that part! ;)

Think about airlines that are painted blue and white and fly 757s out of JFK who could be chartered for this type of subservice.Quote:

Well, jetBlue really f**ked up this one! (Excuse my language). Everyone deserves a free ticket on JetBlue plus trueBlue points for the members. I know some already got free tickets, but they all should get one.

Might look like this livery... ;)
JetBlue hired subservices from Omni (752), ATA (753) and North American (752) to cover flights.Quote:

I am glad to see B6 was intelligent enough to sub-service from other carriers to move their customers. I was very surprised Frontier did not do this during their DEN meltdown right before Christmas. BTW B6's third bad day in a row made all three of the major networks National news Friday night and it was not favorable coverage.

Tonight I was home babysitting my 4 1/2 month old daughter and while I was entertaining her I was also listening to JFK ground, trying to start her aviation interest when her Mom is not around. Anway this guy landed using a B6 callsign and I heard something pretty wild, Jetblue 4014 HEAVY !

As this was a sub flight from ATA really confused that ATA would use a B6 callsign when I am almost certain ATA actually dispatched the flight. The ground controller actually mistakenly identified it as B6 operated by North American.

JetBlue 4115 Heavy, DC-10 (Omni ?) just landed JFK from ATL, I assume on position for Tommorow.

Ron they really don't have the choice, B6 doesn't have the capacity to deal with situations like this and they made it worse by removing further capacity in 2006. I really use to like B6 but the last few times I've flown them I've been delayed by more then three hours. They expanded to fast and bit off more then they could chew. Just compare their revenue with other airlines they are performing the worst for an airline of their size. They still are making tech stops on transcons this year bc the 320s can't make it. They made some really bad decisions in the last two years and its we're seeing it now.Quote:

Whoops, sorry.
So you think it went ATL-JFK-MCO?
