Ragen – Training Agents by Reinforcing Reasoning

Okay that's neat. It was interesting watching how the misery changes as the storms roll through watching something like DAL which is easy to see the effects. The cascade effect on cities without storms reminds me of how auto traffic slow downs from an accident continue to linger even though the blockage has cleared.

Use this all the time for flying, it's fantastic. Great to know you'll be delayed before they even make the decision.

Highly recommend the 'Map View' tab and the 'Weather' tab (especially with Cities + Fronts enabled).

If you are delayed, get this tool up. It is a huge informational advantage over the data the airline will give you and provides excellent help making a decision on seeking a different mode of transportation, giving up and going home, taking an inferior seat on a different airline etc...

Didnt expect this to trend on HN. I used to travel every week for work and learned to used this and fly.faa.gov/ois to find out how long ground stops will be during delays for years.

While I'm on this soapbox: ExpertFlyer. If you travel once per month or more, it is ABSOLUTELY worth the $10/mo. They provide a lot of info straight from GDSes, somehow. Invaluable for rebooking and seat changes.

That faa.gov url won't open. Can you share the correct link?

Is something going on? Why is BOS closed?

It’s closed to unscheduled transient flights, which is normal when an airport gets busy/backed up.

This is the note:

> Closed TO NON SKED TRANSIENT GA ACFT EXC PPR 617-561-2500

Which translates to “closed to non-scheduled transient general aviation aircraft, except those with prior permission from calling 617-561-2500”

They just don’t want me flying my Skyhawk in there at 90kts on final, at least without calling them first so they can get some cathartic tongue lashing in before giving me permission.

When I looked SFO, DEN, LAS, and EWR were all delayed due to weather. Do busier airports end up on this list more for some reason, or is it just really bad luck today?
