Didn't he say the same thing about Islip?

The Command Center is hosting a NY METRO SCHEDULE TELCON at the top of the hour, 0100z (2000 local), to "to discuss how airlines plan to reconstruct their schedules into the New York Metro area tomorrow." Where to begin...

TEB is closed once again, estimating re-opening tomorrow, 12/28 at 1100z (0600 local). Same estimate for EWR according to the ATCSCC.

No, he said he was going into FRG, but there was a disable aircraft, and that ISP was closed. It's a G4, btw (the inbound, not the disabled...)

JFK Ground: Snow Team 1 can I hold planes waiting for gates on 22R?
Snow Team 1: Uhh, No.

**Lrusso** · 2010-12-27, 08:36 PM

AND FINALLY RJ 261 into the ramp!
LOL I SPOKE TO SOON THEY TOLD HIM TO HOLD

The G4 wants a progressive taxi!
Lufthansa 4 Tango 9 will be the first departure!

Speaking of FRG, New Highway CLOSED from Conklin to Route 109 due to icy roads. Lots of black ice out there. BE CAREFUL ALL!!

Sounds like a mess! I listened into LiveATC like 2 hours ago when AA24 was on final and landed, and just listened to it real quick and it sounds like they are still taxiing...

Whats going on with this Newark divert?

BA just denied him a gate.

Sounds like he came from Iceland, diverted to PHL then was supposed to head up to EWR but had to divert to JFK. No one knows know who is going to take care of him at JFK in terms of gate and servicing. Callsign is Flystar 113 or something like that. Sucks to be those pax..

Kennedy Ground getting VERY testy with Air France 6 Super.

Said he would like him in Paris

and now a lufthansa is stuck in the snow

Looks like it is Astraeus Airlines (Flystar 413) flying for Iceland Express. They came in from Keflavik, scheduled into EWR.

There's a vehicle broken down on one of the taxiways - tower asked if Joe Patroni was coming out to move it.
