Dry run? The passenger’s complaints about staff in continuous disarray makes me think staff at airport have lost their communications. Passenger notes a man “yelling” come this way - where’s the PA system? It’s the level of uncoordination (yeah I know, it’s an airport) that makes me think this is more than a power outage. In the article, passengers talk about acrid smell of electrical “burning” or something.
My thoughts exactly. My husband was flying into Detroit several years ago for a wedding. The rest of our family and I were already there. It was the huge power outage in August of 2003 I believe. The entire event was quite humorous and we still laugh about it today.
This one seems much more ominous....and not funny at all. Mainly because it seems to center around the airport and the communication is lacking.
And my daughter is stuck on a plane in the midst of it.
