Delta 737 defies Irma

[Jeroen Hoppenbrouwers]

Whether this was irresponsible recklessness or a professionally conducted operation, who knows, but they pulled it off.

Great job by the ground crew (hope they have managed to escape Irma and are safe). Makes me wonder, what was so important (who?) in Puerto Rico that needed to be picked up. Or was this just PR on behalf of Delta? Also, what was the yield factor on both sectors (I am willing to bet that greater percentage was on the out-bound flight).

Nonetheless, glad to see that they have managed to pull it off.
