me. Holiday cheer24 December 2003
Dateline, Washington and Paris: Air France canceled several flights to the United States after U.S. officials, on heightened alert for terror attacks over the holiday, passed on "credible" security threats involving passengers scheduled to fly to Los Angeles on flights from Paris, U.S. and European officials said Wednesday. That from the Associated Press.
21 December 2003Dateline New York: With the nation on high alert and the city at orange plus, LaGuardia Airport has placed all departing flights on hold due to concerns about a passenger. Aiport officials say all passengers will be re-screened before flights are resumed. At about 5:30 p.m., security officials began clearing portions of the airport so passengers could be sent back through security checkpoints. That from New York One. Meanwhile as I sit here blogging overlooking Manhattan, I can hear the sounds of jets. They do not sound like the disctinctively meanacing Air National Guard or Air Force F-15s flying combat air patrol that were ever present in the hours and days after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. They sound like typical commercial airliners. I wonder if any of them are carrying any special presents. Have a Merry, and a Bright, and all that.
