VS 1 was diverted to Boston yesterday due to bad weather at Newark. However later it continued from Boston to Newark.

Hoping the weather is improved now as I am on VS 1 today

Yes, high winds on the NE coast yesterday ... hopefully no knock on delays but the 1 has a few hours on the ground in EWR to catch up.

Looks like the same with VS009, landed in Bangor for a couple of hours last night.

I was on VS1 today, which arrived just 20 mins late just to congestion on the approach to EWR. Again high winds and a bad storm. Slightly bumpy approach and then a very smooth landing on board Lady Penelope. nearly 400 passengers on board so at was a busy one.

The VS2 that night was delayed by 4 hours, and left just after 1:30am, I was gate lead that night so had to deliver the bad news to everyone. VS1 landed at EWR just before midnight.
Was an interesting night to work, only 4 cleaners turned up for the turn around so about 5 of us ground staff got onboard and helped clean.
