I agree, especially now sounding selfish, but this news is affecting my up and coming travels that I have been waiting for, for so long. Not knowing is driving me crazy, although I truely understand the importance of safety.
you guys should put on the dates on when it closed and when it will open....
The reality is that the volcanic activity could increase again – the whole iceland volcano eruption thing has been a pretty humbling experience for me. I hope we find a way to fly higher.
I work for Continental Airlines and we all hope this Volcano calms down forever we need to make sure our passangers are well taken care of
