Why crew sched, reroute, tracking, and accomodations are not co-located is beyond me.
Being a top tier airline and not able to contact those people is absolutely unacceptable. I'm not even working and it ticks me off!

Talked to crew sked, flight is still on time... In the event of IROPS, shouldn't they try to get crews out of the problem area instead of flying more in so we all get stuck??

I'm DV8ing to an outstation to fly one leg to ATL tomo morning, but today's last flight of the day has already been cancelled, so it's very likely unless they can pull some hat trick, we'll be showing up at the gate with lots of passengers, full crew and no plane.

Exactly.... cancel at the outstation and wait there and then go into recovery.

not true. I talked to the scheds 3 times this morning....they keep telling me they can't help me and forwarding me to tracking where I listen to cool music for hours on end. On the fourth call, the sched said they could help me and wasn't sure why the previous 3 did not help me. Nice.

Just headed out around town for some errands and the local roads are clearing nicely - on their own, no thanks to the shoddy salting and plowing. Not sure about the interstates or farther north of the airport, but to the south braking action is good
Also, you may not need that type I/IV. Most of the cars I've seen just have a little snow on the roofs and a bit on the windshield. All the clear ice glazing has melted off. Whoo hoo!
