Air Whiskey to philly?

[relief tube]

anyone know when AIrWisc is starting the transition to USair flying?

Was in PHL today and saw a Usexpress w/ tail number ending in AW, didn't know if it's just mesa or someone knew.

Awac

We (AWAC) started flying for US Airways last Saturday.

Remember the following.

"Ops need marshlers and a jet way driver on gate ##".

"Ops need fuel on gate ##".

I could keep going but that would take all the fun out of it.


Best of luck in PHL.

Yeah, the other night I heard an Air Whiskey flight on ops making the laundry list of service requests at the gate. Air Cart, GPU, lav, windshield, "commissary" (it's "catering" now), etc. I kinda laughed to myself and wondered how much of that they would actually get in a timely manner.

Welcome to Philly. Get your lavs done at the outstations and don't hit any bugs on the leg in.

I saw AWC is running flights from PHL to CHS now as well.

Is AWAC doing their own W and Balance Calculations with the new USAir flying, or still doing that "breakdown" stuff. Have fun with that in PHL.

We do are w/b through our ACARS and then write it down for the station. PHL won't be any different than ORD. Our ramp there is pretty bad and almost impossible to get a lav, but you will NEVER get one unless you ask, right? Trust me, AWAC is used to poorly run ramps in the hubs.

I've given up...

How about: "Folks we are just a few feet from the gate, but we need someone to park us. Please keep your seatbelts fastened until we are able to turn off the fasten seatbelt sign. Welcome to Philly!"

Then you sit back, relax, and think about how insanely over block you are about to be.

Resistance is futile!

I feel you. This happened to me all the time in Charlotte parking at the "E" gates. I always thought I would hop on the early flight and beat that traffic home. NOT! We would sit on the ramp for 45 mins or so.

You dont think PHL is any worse then ORD? Granted I've only been to ORD a handful of times, but my friend, let me offer you my most profound condolences about now being based in PHL. You have no idea of the hell your about to experience. May god be with all of you.

Hope Air Wiskey will enjoy flying out of phili. They have no idea what they have comming with ramp operations there.

You've got it right on, relax and listen to the sound of cash flowing.

Yeah, none of us want to be in Philly, but we didn't have a say in the matter.
