of course nothing could go 'normal' today! our oakland flight (the last one for the day) is coming in 3 hours late. apparently medical emergencies and weather related issues - nothing really that out of the ordinary. in order to make up the late arrival of the one flight, our system ops schedules a ferry flight direct from jfk to fly to take it's place. it only HAD to arrive during the same time we had another plane on the ground -- dual ops once again. once the last flight left on schedule we were all set for a 3 hour break to wait for the late arrival from oakland. *** ring **** our general manager gets a phone call that we're receiving a diverted flight from jfk that was en route to west palm beach. uh -- can you say 6 planes on the ground when we were originally scheduled for 3? top that off with some staffing call outs on the ramp and on the gate side. it was challenging but we pulled through. luckily my boss said most of us could go before the late flight arrival. i'm tired -- but i'm still going out later. woo-hoo!
