I am a mechanic. And if not being a mechanic means someone has no idea what they are talking about, then that means you have no idea what you’re taking about.
I know that the issues they had yesterday are due to a lack of proper preventive maintenance.
Why are you taking a review of an airline experience personally? You don’t have to respond if you don’t like the post.

Because unless you’re a mechanic you have no idea what you’re taking about lol.

I also had a bad experience with Avelo. They lack in communication IMO.
When leaving tweed, we boarded the plane and just sat there for awhile until they announced that we would be rerouting due to weather. Fine, no problem. But then we were told there wasn’t enough fuel. The gate we were at didn’t allow access to that so we had to buckle in and circle around the airport to get to one that did.
Coming home from tweed, our flight was also delayed. As a result, when we landed, there were no gates open for us. We sat an additional 2 hours waiting to get off. And by the way, that landing is ROUGHHHHH. We came to a screeching halt. Had the flight attendants not said, “if you’ve never flown to tweed, make sure you brace yourself,” I’m sure I would have hit my head on the seat in front of me.

So why bring up the mechanic question?

Did I say the whole entity was bad? I said that the experience was terrible and it’s unacceptable.
There’s also no need to call me a “cunt” for writing a review and informing people.

I taken an Uber once and it was in the ballpark of $60-$70 if I recall. There are ways via transit that’ll get you to the train station in New Haven. In general I find it less hectic.

Oh well in that case that means this 26 hour delay is acceptable, no big deal.

No but I’ve flown on an airplane and know that this happens regardless of airline.

It is sad that a simple flight domestically being delayed 10 hours, then turned around and then delayed once again the next day (over 25 hours delay so far) is “just another day” in the American airline industry. Shit standards if you believe this is acceptable.

we've had only good trips from New Haven so far with avelo. and i see overwhelmingly positive reviews on the Google reviews for tweed which are all avelo flights. That said -I would not wish your trip on anyone- sorry for that

M60 bus gets you from lga to the Harlem metro north station. That’ll be faster than going to grand central, like 45 minutes faster

Reply to Biking to the VA? by throwaway98745654123
I ride 6 miles round trip everyday through downtown for my commute. It’s very doable within downtown NH, once you start heading towards WH it gets significantly less bike friendly. I take the Farmington for a good chunk and that’s all good. Roads downtown aren’t bad either but like others have noted you will be on the defense, just always be aware of your surroundings and take up the lane if you can. If you don’t feel comfortable with the traffic, just take the sidewalk.
Once you start hitting WH you’ll notice drivers being even less cognizant of their surroundings and speeding and what not. As others said, I would avoid the blvd and any busy road. You really can’t trust drivers in that area. ALWAYS bring lights and wear Hi vis gear, especially now that it’s getting dark around 4 pm.
I think the Bike + bus/train might be your best combo as others have noted. May as well do the bus over the train since it’s free.
Good luck and safe riding!

I would rather they maintain their planes so they don’t have to delay flights for 8 hours to deal with things that should be standard maintenance

Though also in your post you said it's not worth avoiding the traffic to Hartford which sort of states that you wouldn't use them again, and advertises that you are saying people shouldn't go there. That would be the whole entity..
