@NYCAviation Check my tweets: Snowed in on the tarmac! Flt 004. Refused to cancel, now we're stranded out here. Can't get us to gate.

Since we got stuck on this VA plane, the AirTrain has shut down, subway's stalled, LIRR crippled. Even when we reach the gate, we're stuck.

We knew something was fishy when @VirginAtlantic said every flight was cancelled--except ours. So why go? Now look.

Lesson for @VirginAtlantic: If you can't fly safely, don't taxi.

Could be warm at home if only @VirginAtlantic had the sense every other airline had. Now I'm snowed in on JFK tarmac. At least serve drinks!

Seems like everyone knew planes couldn't fly today. Everyone except @VirginAtlantic. Now we're stranded on tarmac. Oh yes, babies screaming.

We may be stuck out on the JFK tarmac for a long time, hemmed in by snow. You can feel the tow trucks' wheels spinning. 3 hrs on & counting

JFK: So far, grounds crew can't get traction to bring @VirginAtlantic back to gate. 250 of us were dragged out here needlessly & stuck now!

@bastable
@MikeTRose Yes! It's a huge mess. So irresponsible!

@bastable
@nomadicmatt They were irresponsible. There was no way. Now I'm marooned on tarmac. Can't even get back home cuz trains are crippled now.

@bastable
The AC's back on @VirginAtlantic. But that's little comfort to 250 people needlessly dragged out to JFK for obviously impossible flight.

@bastable
Now JFK @VirginAtlantic flight is stranded on tarmac because so much snow has fallen. Mutiny brewing. This shouldn't have gotten this far.

@bastable
JFK: @VirginAtlantic flight refuses to cancel early, boards 250, sits on tarmac for 2.5 hours with no AC. THEN cancels. People are furious.

The scene at JFK tonight: #travel #snowpocalypse
