In a paper today or yesterday our boys at the top said the problems this weekend were because of the kiosk and the labor work rules.

US Airways Says Thousands Still Stuck
By MARYCLAIRE DALE
Associated Press Writer

PHILADELPHIA - Thousands of weary travelers faced a third day waiting to reach their destinations Sunday as US Airways struggled to recover from the ice and snow storm that paralyzed airports in the Northeast.

The airline was still trying to find seats for 100,000 passengers systemwide whose flights were grounded by Friday's storm, spokesman Andrew Christie said.

Computer problems, airline staffing rules and other problems slowed US Airways' attempts to clear the backlog. In addition, the airline's flights on Sunday were already nearly sold out with 275,000 passengers booked, the airline said.
 
Its just typical of management to mislead the public in just a few short words that labor is part of the chaos equation this past weekend. Since U cut the work force by 50% over 3 years, yea it is contract work rules

...contracts don't permit pilots, f/as to fly 24 hours without a rest period, and ramp, mechanics, agents to work 3 (8 hour) shifts in a 24 hour period...sorry B) ...maybe next concession.
