The airports in most jeopardy for closure include Atlanta, Charlotte, Ft. Lauderdale, Ft. Myers, Orlando, Tampa, Washington Dulles and West Palm Beach.

For Tampa, CENTCOM will probably start flying people milair instead of commercial.

For Dulles, my GOD THAT is a huge hub, especially internationally.

This explains some of the panic buying in Atlanta. As always, the market senses what is coming.

This could easily be the last nail in the coffin for one or more airlines.

I've been saying for quite some time that our refining capabilities in this nation were spread too thin.

This is seriously going to affect everyone... well almost everyone that is.

You just watch the profit reports for this and the next quarter. Oil company profits will set records.

How could they shut down Atlanta? Might as well shut down the entire domestic airline industry.

If you look at the maps of US oil pipelines, the Southeast US including Atlanta and Washington, DC are really only served by two pipes. Both of these are down for at least a couple days.

The midwest and northeast are served by pipelines that run through texas, but the Southeast looks screwed until the Colonial and Plantation pipelines are back on line.

While search is a good friend, search after you've filled out the online post form is your best friend.

The time between starting to fill out the form and finally completing that form can be much more than 5 minutes.

Damn. I am *supposed* to go out of Tampa to Baltimore Friday morning to see my daughter. Flying back on Monday.

So, if I do actually get there, I could very well get stuck.

As a Boeing employee I fear another post 9/11 slump following this Gulf Coast disaster. We have finally turned around and have lots of orders on the books, but I can foresee postponements or cancellations of orders if this inflation of fuel prices continue much longer.
