You can't just contact thousands of delayed and stranded passengers saying, 'it's easing off folks, come to the airport and let's launch'.

For the first time ever, the Dart will cut management some slack. As someone operating close to the pre-notified cessation of operations, I thought it was well handled. And the reducing traffic made it a 'breeze' so to speak. Even the fuel policy was well thought out, having the extra 'ballast' fuel was nice.

Also, thanks to HKG ATC.

That's just this year, do you really want to be onboard a Cebu Pacific aircraft with a typhoon within 1000 miles ?
