Everything in Chicopee looked pretty nice covered in snow. We ended up driving 13 hours.

We were shooting in the S&W Winter Nationals. So we saw the hotel and the indoor ranges at S&W.

It ticked us off that all the new england flights on other airlines had cancelled, but Skybus showed ‘on-time’.

So we drove all the way from Raleigh to Greensboro to learn 20 minutes before departure that we weren’t flying. That also put us 2 hours out of our way on our eventual road trip.

Yikes! But your experience is probably 35% of what killed Skybus. Fuel prices were the other 65%. Of course, the pilots were going to vote next week to unionize, so it would have been over either way.
