Their statements says they were ‘uncomfortable’ temperatures.
Nah fuckers, those are DANGEROUS temperatures. This just wasn’t an uncomfortable wait, this shit is serious
Of course this isn’t an unpopular opinion but I absolutely loathe air travel. It’s always a stain on any trip I take. I just got back from a trip where every connecting flight was missed by the fault of the airline. Who schedules for 1.5 hours to land, deboard, customs, security, and transit to another terminal at DFW? Why is the standard to do maintenance checks during boarding?
Now I’m not super familiar with how the systems work, but on most planes the AC doesn’t seem to work until they can start the engines. Atleast that’s been the case for almost every Boeing and other smaller regional jet makers. But with my most recent trip we were on A321s and those fuckers were frosty all the time. It was 102 outside and I was cold as fuck waiting for pushback.
I guess my point is, we need more laws on how long a reasonable wait is while boarded, and stricter regulations for high/low Temps… which can be averted by whatever the fuck Airbus is doing on the vomit comet A321
Before pushback, the plane’s AC is provided with power over connections with the terminal, I believe. If a plane’s sitting on the tarmac (this would be after pushback), it’s not getting AC.
