Hey, that's kind of cool to spread the word about something different and interesting and recognize the geeks.
It sure is nice to see those nice tall tails of the Triple's next to the other planes parked at the concourse.
I was just over there poking around. The Star Alliance bird is parked at a gate on the C concourse. The other with the United titles is backed in behind the A concourse next to the hangar. Stopped in the terminal to use the can. The monitor by the check in counters showed flight 91 scheduled for a 5PM departure, flight 49 at 7PM. You folks who work there could probably verify this later today. None of this is showing right now on Flightaware. Got a few shots from the parking garage.
We've ALWAYS been a worthwhile hub! I almost posted something on the "blue" site where someone wondered why CO would send the diversions here instead of IAD or ORD. It ticks me off that people don't think we are capable of handling these things! In addition to the two 777's, we also are handling three 737's that diverted last night...one from SAN, one from EGE, and one from TPA...all either spent the night, most of the day, or both.
Granted, CLE does have an issue with customs being such a small facility, but once we get people through there, we can handle the rest! Bring 'em on, I say!

I hung around the 100 BG until it got too dark. Did get to see ship 20 get towed to the gate. Pics uploaded!
