@darinstuff Yes sir and it’s not even close. Used to fly Hawaii back in the day and they’d fly commercial to one of the major airports out west then hop on a charter to their destination. Saved them ~$1M a yr.
Wash and Oregon teams will be spending a stupid amount of time sitting on ✈️ !
Yesterday was the busiest day ever at airports in the US, with the @TSA reporting 2,884,783 people screened. It was also an incredibly smooth day of travel with fewer than one-half of one percent of 51,332 scheduled flights canceled.
Flights to US airports have been groundstopped by the FAA until at least 09:30 ET (1430 UTC). This means any flight not in the air already will not be allowed to depart. Image: flights over US now compared to same time last week. About 700 fewer flights airborne now.
The final 747 produced has taken to the air for the first time. N863GT took off from Everett shortly after 9:00 am local time, and made a test flight of just over 1 hour.

A dog was accidentally sent through the X-ray @MSN_Airport this week. When traveling with any animal, notify your airline & know their rules. At the checkpoint, remove your pet from the bag and send all items, including the empty carrier, to be screened in the machine. (1/2)
