Typhoon Pakhar

Well, I'm going to take a wild guess that CX are kicking themselves for not shutting down ops for this typhoon.

Aircraft, crews and passengers dispersed to all points. Clearly a chaotic situation.

And then the mangement (sic) come out begging for help. Airbus office with a special issue of The Bagel. GMO own at dispatch asking people to hang around, even though screw control (sorry - screw operations) has given the standard 1 or 2 hr RPT.

Officially the contract compliance suspension from the last typhoon ends this afternoon sometime. oh dear....

And of note, the suspension of CC doesn't mean you're being asked to help, or to answer your phone, or check crew direct. It merely means you can, if you feel it is appropriate.......
