I’m laughing, because looking at the poll I feel a lot of us are on the same page about AA in the Northeast. 😂
 
In 17 years of flying in/out of SEA, I’ve seen probably 12 different iterations of “we’re going to de-ice this way, it’s going to work better!”

But…

I'm sure they are having their pre-winter meeting as we speak. I wonder what promises they will make this year

My shop just avoids bidding contracts to snow/ice destinations in wintertime, as having to deice is a cost they want to avoid. To me, it’s the cost of doing business, even though it’s indeed expensive for it being done correctly. But I don’t own the company. Sometimes I wonder if management merely adopted Air Florida’s deice program.

WHAT Air Florida deice program? Ohhhhhhh… I get it!
