For many years passengers and airlines alike have grappled with the problems associated with the effects and disruptions imposed on flight schedules due to weather events. In all this time it has never occurred to anyone that the entire problem could be solved by following this poster's simple suggestion that we base all weather related flight operations decisions on the weather in Portland, ME at the present moment. As I write this post, for instance, we are beginning to notice cancellations in Richmond, VA on flights into EWR, JFK, BOS, LGA, etc. Obviously, there is no reason for these disruptions if the weather in Portland, ME is not an impedment to flight operations. If you can find the time, could you please look out your window and contact the FAA and all the major airlines directly with an update on the weather in Portland, ME. If you could do this, we would then be able to clear up all the cancellations/delays that are currently impacting today's flight schedules.
Rather than contacting DOT, you should probably contact their supervisor concerning the implementation of your excellent thought. His name is Barack H. Obama, and his mailing address is 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington DC, USA. I am certain that he will be most interested in this, and any other suggestions, that you might be able to make regarding flight operations or the weather in Portland, ME. It may also be productive to contact William J. Clinton, George W. Bush, George H. W. Bush, James E. Carter, Willard M. Romney, Willard Scott, or Harry S. Truman. If you wish to take legal action concerning the airline's obvious failure to properly account for weather events that may be impacting the northeastern portion of the United States, I can recommend the firm of S. Claus, E. Bunny, and J.H. Christ. They were able to win my suit against DAL concerning the obviously frivolous weather related cancellation of all flights into LGA on 10/30/2012.
