Can't believe this isn't on here yet...

Power restored at Atlanta airport after outage snarled air traffic | Fox News

Nearly 100 loaded planes grounded, 1100+ more flights canceled, 5000 meals being sent to airport for stranded passengers as power is finally resorted.

Answers the question my wife sometimes ask about my EDC.

"Why do you think you need to carry all that stuff?"

Shine my light at the TV screen showing a blacked out terminal and take a sip of water.

And Chik-fil-a, which is typically closed on Sunday, fed the stranded people.

It was a good day to NOT be flying...

How could that be? I heard interviews from people stranded at the airport who were literally starving to death because they had not eaten food for seven hours. They probably weren't Christians so I bet Chik-fil-a denied them service. I can only imagine how horrific the death toll will be when the lights come on and they can count the bodies.

You're not lying.

I fly through DTW whenever I have the opportunity. Unfortunately, my next three flights are either through, or to, ATL.
