Hey folks,
Was sitting on the tarmac at ORD for 10 minutes the other day, pilot comes on and says "waiting for gate space." This is the third time this has happened on US at ORD in the past few months, so I know it has to be common (2 gates isn't a whole lot)
With the announcement of 2 additional flights from PHL and no apparant cuts to the PIT/CLT-ORD schedule, is there any chance of a third ORD gate even though ORD is so tight for space?? Possibly a new agreement with our codeshare partner to lease out a gate during the day?
On the same topic, it is sickening that SAN is down to 1 gate and we lease a gate (20 I believe) to park our A/C there overnight!
