Re: Volcanic Ash Cloud Flight Poll
Friend was telling me yesterday about a group of crew working for his ariline - they were on the last night of a 4 night stop in the Middle East when they were stranded. So they've now been there an extra 5 nights, and even though everything is paid by the airline thats still twice as long as they expected. That then throws out the rest of their rosters once they do get back, and then has a knock-on effect on all the other crews. Thats without the logistics of all the planes in the wrong place! Nightmare for the scheduling people.

They'll be starting up their excel spreadsheets as we speak 
So if A is in B when its supposed to be in C and D is in A when its supposed to be in F how do we get things going again.
Oh look excel figured it all out. Right back to normal.
