schedule update (because you all care). Now deadheading Tampa to Baltimore and operating Baltimore to Detroit.

@ Jetlink « Tue 2:52:27 pm »

supposed to fly Tampa-Austin-Chicago today. Both flights cancelled.

@ Jetlink « Tue 2:51:42 pm »

very believable.

More than Seattle?

@ ~Z~ « Tue 1:23:17 pm »

Grand Rapids’ airport could certainly be called a cloudport over Detroit through, since we’re one of the cloudiest places in the lower 48.

@ ~Z~ « Tue 1:20:51 pm »

Maybe the detroit one is not actually an airport, instead called the Detroit Metropolitan International Cloudport.

@ Chip « Tue 12:21:31 pm »

Hmm, either I’m mistaken or it was changed at some point

Nope. But I’ve heard about it.

Walky complete. 5.1 miles

@ Jetlink « Mon 2:41:47 pm »

Pretty sure DaveO has spent some time traveling in and out of the sunport as well based on some past discussions webe had of the area.

@ DaveO « Mon 1:40:37 pm »

tell them you’re having shoulder surgery. for the next time tell them you’re having cataract surgery. worked for me

@ DaveO « Mon 1:24:20 pm »

I also like DTW because they never changed metro to international.

@ DaveO « Mon 1:23:06 pm »

Yea I got it. I like international airports where you have to arrange for CBP in advance.

@ ~Z~ « Mon 12:22:43 pm »

seems like DaveO was spot on. Checked google maps earlier and saw it was referenced as a sunport as well. Pretty sure DaveO got your "joke".

@ ~Z~ « Mon 12:21:18 pm »

then why did chip say that DaveO didn’t get the joke when he said "they have a sunport which looks just like an airport"

@ Chip « Mon 12:07:53 pm »

Also I’ve flown there. My grandfather lived in ABQ and the sunport was not a busy place at all

@ Chip « Mon 12:07:26 pm »

It’s not an airport, it’s a sunport

@ Jeff L « Mon 11:39:46 am »

Jetlink, did you see the Southwest Airlines skit on Saturday Night Live. Embarrassing.

@ Jetlink « Mon 11:24:28 am »

This might help

The Albuquerque International Sunport, known for its distinct southwestern architecture and cultural décor, is New Mexico’s largest commercial airport, welcoming over 5 million passengers each year. The Sunport boasts a world-class art collection, unique amenities, New Mexican cuisine, and many local artisanal gifts. Served by 8 major carriers, the Sunport offers non-stop service between ABQ and more than 20 destinations, all with worldwide connectivity. The Albuquerque International Sunport is the Gateway of New Mexico.[/]

@ Jetlink « Mon 11:22:44 am »

I know exactly what Dave O and chip mean.

@ ~Z~ « Mon 11:04:48 am »

Chip, google doesn’t know what your joke about albuquerque not having an airport means either.

@ AARR « Mon 11:02:40 am »

Just tell them you climb trees to take pictures of trains and you’ll be dismissed
