i am just a kitten and not a meteorologist or anything, but is it maybe striking anyone else as weird how many weather events lately seem to affect only one airline at a time?
I have no problem with those who chose to get the jab. Or those who wear a mask ALL the time, nor those who hide at home. But for the love of GOD, please, there are those who do NOT want a jab, NO MANDATORY JAB!
The only problem I have with the vaxxers is that they are driving the evolution of possibly nasty variants. See “Marek’s disease” for further information.
They are also encouraging the weakest and most impressionable people to to embrace their weakness and to submit to the authoritarians among us. I find it interesting and disturbing how many wannnabe dictators there are in my own community.
And in my experience the common, always unstated, underlying premise is that there’s no price that’s too high for YOU to pay so they can have THEIR delusion of “safety”.
I’ve heard rumors floating around that November 3rd may see some particularly bad weather. I have no first hand knowledge of this, but I’ve seen it mentioned in several different places. So bring an umbrella, or whatever.
Says RFK JR: Religious and medical exemptions are being rejected but that is a false choice anyway. Since when does anyone need an exemption to exercise their personal right to reject a foreign substance being injected into their body by the government?
I’m living through it. Stuck in CLT. Plane is here, no bad weather anywhere, but no crew. American is paying customers to stay quiet. (Hotel, food, etc.)
I think it is the law that if the airline is not able to get you to your destination within X hours, they have to give you hotel, meals. It may have changed, it has been awhile since I checked.
It depends. If it is due to weather they are not required to pay. But if is staffing, they are required to give some reasonable accommodations (generally). They are trying to pass this off as weather to al customers, but wise cats 🐈⬛ ask questions about the crew and where they might be. Then the payoffs begin.
I heard that's why Southwest was clinging to the narrative that their cancellations were weather-related. They didn't want to admit it was staff walkouts & therefore be responsible for hotel bills, etc. from pissed off customers.
Not SWA. Last time bumped we used Hotels.Com to get a place. Close to the airport, shuttle van, free breakfast. Keep an emergency toiletry kit with a change of underwear in your carryon.
Stay safe and I hope you get to your destination soon. Remind yourself that you are living through extraordinary times. Stories to tell your grandkids someday.
Newsom pulled out of the conference 2 days after getting a booster sbot, citing "family issues ". I'm not sure if the incidents are related, but there sure have been a bunch of coincidences with health issues lately.
And don't forget the Glasgow COP starts tomorrow, so boodles of blowhards and their bureaucrat boobs are probably warming up their vocal cords to continue to bamboooze boobus Americanus, Britannicus, Germanicus, etc. into bondage.
They should surround the venue with turbines, all facing inward, as unlike everywhere else, as that idiot wind never stops blowing.
The Enhanced Fujita scale measuring tornado winds only go up to a level five, with winds 218+ mph. The blowhards of Glasgow COP push that scale up to a 6 or 7.
I'm not sure how they are going to top trotting out a teenage girl who believes she can see CO2 telling them to panic, I'm sure they will spend a boatload of our money trying.
And the hilarious thing? There aren’t enough charging stations for the electric cars they’re using to shuttle the participants around, so they’re bringing in a bunch of diesel generators to charge the electric cars. It’s all theater!
Right. 25,000 of these hucksters and charlatans flying into Glasgow, many of them, like Brandon's Climate Czar, on private jets, and all of whom got a special reprieve from the Covid rules, unlike we plebes who get to pay for the lavish salaries, lodging, meals and bar tabs these parasite clowns rack up.
Because, you know, we need The Science™, which to my knowledge has never made a single accurate prediction in 40 years of doomsaying, to Save the Planet™.
Assuming the world ever returns to sanity, future historians may call our time the Age of Absurdity.
"What historians will definitely wonder about in future centuries is how deeply flawed logic, obscured by shrewd and unrelenting propaganda, actually enabled a coalition of powerful special interests to convince nearly everyone in the world that CO2 from human industry was a dangerous, planet-destroying toxin. It will be remembered as the greatest mass delusion in the history of the world - that CO2, the life of plants, was considered for a time to be a deadly poison."
~ Richard Lindzen, Professor Emeritus, Earth Sciences, M.I.T.
They actually won’t wonder. By the time future generations stop to look, incredulous, at the madness they will, ipso facto, have corrected the fundamental underlying colossal error that is moral and intellectual relativism and will have assimilated the eternal reality that “The truth shall set you free”.
They will have broadly rejected materialism and the venal pursuit of raw political power as supreme values and have successfully substituted therefor the pursuit of truth, beauty and goodness.
It sounds far-fetched, but so would the internet have sounded to pre-Gutenberg man.
It won’t be next year or next decade, and probably not even the next generation. But even now, quietly and slowly, good people are returning to God, the very source of Truth, Beauty and Goodness — the very God proclaimed as our Father two millennia ago by Jesus of Nazareth.
God lives in your heart and ever speaks, softly, saying “This is the way.” Listen carefully and with sincerity and a pure heart and you will hear it. And one day you will look back at the moment you actually started to listen and realize that, while you didn’t think so at the time, you had begun to hear. This is the meaning of “Ask and it shall be given you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you.”
I was laying in bed this morning thinking how Biden seems to be steering the ship towards the rocks, then realized the Captain, first mate, and anyone else who could steer the ship was fired off the boat for not taking the vaccine... -Admiral Brandon?
Yes on a FB group I am in, people are stranded in the Dallas airport because American has cancelled their flight from CA to Nashville! Been there for awhile!
There really were 50 mph winds here in Dallas for two days, where AA has a main hub I think. It was hard to drive a car without getting blown into another lane at times. But I have never seen that lead to thousands of flight cancellations since I have lived here.
Here is their email to me. The writing is horrendous. What a joke!
Hello, XXXXXX
Over the last few days, we proactively canceled flights in order to account for weather in our operation and its impact to our crew members’ flight schedules.
We recognize that you may have been impacted by these adjustments. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and that we weren’t able to provide advance notice about these changes. We want to share more background and our response to ensure smooth travel this upcoming holiday season.
Weather Impact
Late last week, DFW experienced two days with wind gusts of up to 50 mph, which rendered three of five runways unusable, and reduced arrival capacity by more than half. This weather, along with limited staffing due to crew members’ regular schedules being disrupted, drove a large number of cancellations at our largest hub.
We offer the above not as an excuse, but rather in the spirit of transparency. We take seriously our commitment to serve you, and it is our responsibility to take learnings from this past weekend and improve upon our processes. You deserve nothing less, and you have our pledge that we will do just that.
Our Response
To make sure we are taking care of you and providing scheduling certainty for our crews, we adjusted our operation by proactively canceling some flights to minimize any inconvenience as much as possible. Most customers impacted by these changes are being rebooked the same day.
We expect considerable improvement beginning today with some residual impact from the weekend.
We will continue to staff up across our entire operation:
Today, nearly 1,800 flight attendants are returning from leave.
On December 1, the remainder of flight attendants on leave are coming back.
We'll have 600+ new flight attendants on staff by end of December.
We’re continuing to hire additional pilots and team members in Technical Operations, which includes our maintenance team. We anticipate 4,000 new team members will join us across the system in the fourth quarter.
We’ve hired hundreds of Reservations agents over the last several months, so more team members are in place as we head into the holiday season.
If you need any assistance with your travel plans, please reach out to Reservations at 1-800-433-7300 or with our virtual chat assistant on aa.com and on the American Airlines app.
Thank you for the opportunity to share more background on the last few days and to reassure you of our commitment to getting you where you need to go — when you need to be there.
Misleading headline: American Airlines are referring to the staffing problems due to the unvaxxed's high susceptibility to the new Ligmapore Variant running loose, motions in Singpore, Russia, UK Teens. The Headline should read:
American Airlines has canceled more than 1,000 flights since Friday, citing staffing problems after "high [passing] winds" [from infected staff who are asymptomatic and cannot smell their own flatulence]
Local reporters are saying that the Unvaccinated are not thought to be affected by this problem for now because their high mucosal immunity developed by exposure to the real virus from high passing winds is causing them to be unable to share space with vaccinated who are increasingly becoming unaware of scents.
The Lingmapore variant is thought to have arrived from Delta. The Unvaccinated are being gently told to get vaccinated using intramuscular injection so that they can lose their mucosal immunity and develop long lived t-cell immunity for enhancement and spread through enteric and nasal passage which the Vaccinated are currently blocking due to their autoimmune disorder.
CDC says It's highly recommended that if you are facing staffing shortages due to increased attrition of unvaccinated who are developing mucosal immunity, they should be asked to get a full vaccine regimen so that they can build tolerance to the harmless ligmapore variant. The death rates are only marginally higher in the vaccinated, but the lifelong immunity to rancid smells and high winds is desirable.
I'm no weather expert but we are experiencing a problem with authoritarian windbags.
you are right. Heck with the insurrection, it was a Bomb Cyclone that hit us on November 3rd 2020
I have no problem with those who chose to get the jab. Or those who wear a mask ALL the time, nor those who hide at home. But for the love of GOD, please, there are those who do NOT want a jab, NO MANDATORY JAB!
The only problem I have with the vaxxers is that they are driving the evolution of possibly nasty variants. See “Marek’s disease” for further information.
Don’t shed on me, vaxtards
Don’t shed on me bro
Sorry, a poor portmanteau of Don't Tread On Me and Don't Tase Me Bro

Have tickets for next weekend but would be more excited if I couldn't go because of massive shutdowns due to Hurricane Brandon.

I like it. The free should be putting the “authorities” ON NOTICE of their exemption.
World Wide Walkout. Some org is calling for it
I posted it a moment or 2 later. Here again, just for you:

Say it ain’t so, Joe.
I’m living through it. Stuck in CLT. Plane is here, no bad weather anywhere, but no crew. American is paying customers to stay quiet. (Hotel, food, etc.)
Stay strong!!! If you have to stay the night there they have some great restaurants if you can make it!
Please make a suggestion. We are not from Charlotte.
I think it is the law that if the airline is not able to get you to your destination within X hours, they have to give you hotel, meals. It may have changed, it has been awhile since I checked.

They are trying to pass this off as weather to al customers, but wise cats 🐈⬛ ask questions about the crew and where they might be. Then the payoffs begin.
Thanks! That explains the selective weather problems.
I was just in NC. It’s NOT the weather.
I heard that's why Southwest was clinging to the narrative that their cancellations were weather-related. They didn't want to admit it was staff walkouts & therefore be responsible for hotel bills, etc. from pissed off customers.
Not SWA. Last time bumped we used Hotels.Com to get a place. Close to the airport, shuttle van, free breakfast. Keep an emergency toiletry kit with a change of underwear in your carryon.
And your medications.
CLT???
Charlotte airport
Stay safe and I hope you get to your destination soon. Remind yourself that you are living through extraordinary times. Stories to tell your grandkids someday.
While they are muzzling two year olds I will NEVER fly commercial again
Somebody in another comment said it best -- the weather is gonna turn real bad and it's going to affect way more than the airlines.
Good. At this point in things, it has to be like this. Something major.
Have you never heard of micro-climates? The American Airlines micro-climate is actually quite common. Very different from Delta, or JetBlue.
😂😂
“Ladies and gentlemen, Captain Brandon here. Due to unforeseen headwinds, the vaccine mandates will be making a water landing.”
Could this please happen to the plane carrying Brandon and Newscum and the other elites back from Scotland? Please please please?

I doubt it’s related to the saline injections he and his fellow oligarchs no doubt received: https://odysee.com/@reseau-influence:a/Fausses-vaccinations-(1):1
I also doubt he got a real shot, but who knows, maybe the circus is trying to remove a few of the clowns, too.
That would be a delightful surprise!
The “not-shot”—good one!
Hmmmm.....interesting.
“High winds”?? Is this just more hot air?!?
LOL. Good one. You win "Pun Of The Day"
Oh a mighty winds a blowin’, it’s kickin’ up the sand
It’s blowin’ out a message to every woman, child and man
Yes a mighty winds a blowin’, cross the land and cross the sea
It’s blowin’ peace and freedom, it’s blowin’ equality

Damn, that was good.
Lovely and much-needed …
My flight from DFW to SAN was delayed two hours yesterday because no pilots. So it wasn’t a cancellation, but definitely impacted.
SWest led the way. Booyah.
Love SWA!
Let's Go Brandon!!
Also noticed sun has been going down earlier lately, is their an 800 # I could call to warn the people ?
axischange.wordpress.com
but you might get a busy signal
There's a ton of hot air blowing out of D.C., but that's nothing new.
And don't forget the Glasgow COP starts tomorrow, so boodles of blowhards and their bureaucrat boobs are probably warming up their vocal cords to continue to bamboooze boobus Americanus, Britannicus, Germanicus, etc. into bondage.

Mr. Guyland, your comment is lovely, and I fully agree.
Well ain't that the cherry on top of the shit Sunday.
I love alliteration!
Thanks for bringing this song. I have been reading about It, marvellous time
I was laying in bed this morning thinking how Biden seems to be steering the ship towards the rocks, then realized the Captain, first mate, and anyone else who could steer the ship was fired off the boat for not taking the vaccine... -Admiral Brandon?
obviously climate change as all things are. even covid. if all cause mortality that will go up due to vaxx will be the clear result of climate change.
The winds of change are blowing!
It's either climate change or covid. I'm waiting for Anderson Cooper to tell me which.
How Lemonic of you.
I motion that "Lemonic" enter the official lexicon to mean, "a particularly noxious form of smug stupidity". All those in favor?
Perfect.
🤣
Awesome to see the "bad weather" hitting. We need rain. All over. Not just 1 airline. But great to see!!!!
Yeah…the high winds of “shove your vaccine mandates where the sun don’t shine” kind of sorts.
Let's go Brandon!
Democrats/Leftists are already conditioned to be obedient slaves that love state dictatorship.
They hate anyone that doesn't follow blindly the Left Collective groupthink. They act like the Borg Collective.
"You will be assimilated."
Only Deniers™ deny that gaslighting causes selective high winds and other existential climate catastrophes.
Let's all hope the climate continues to change.
Hmmmm.

Were other airlines affected similarly?
The planes must be trying to avoid those very devastating winds called The Blowhard Winds known to put many in peril.
You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind is blowing.
Brandon's band of bolsheviks need an existential political climate crisis like nobody's business.
Cancel Culture: When The Unvaxxed start walking out and you get cancelled because you can't do stuff anymore.
Everyone knows high winds means cow flatulence.
It is flatulence, but from pols not cows.
Winds from the South... Winds from the North... Robert Isom's AAL's going down.
Also for more grins: Meta in Hebrew means death. h/t Gateway Pundit.
Well as much as I appreciate the message I hope they get it out of their system for a couple of weeks, because tickets
Everything is caused by climate change
you're absolutely right--it's just gotta be climate change!!! ;>) good on the pilots!!!!
Maybe the Bermuda Triangle has moved skyward and swallowed up the planes, but only for one airline at a time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtPW5u7XGXk&t=332s
Oh no, Joe, say it ain't so!
High winds my ass.
High winds from Brandon's ass.
You're the famous African-American baseball player in America.
Holy Fluff, How did it Know......
It's a Scooby Doo mystery . . .

I mean, I did have to do a go around couple days ago in a CRJ, so it was a bit windy
