The RON [remaining overnight] PD359 [Porter flight 359] would’ve been operated by T911 [tail 911, their 11th aircraft] which was DIV [diverted] to YOW [Ottawa] inbound from MIA [Miami]. As of right now that tail remains in YOW and therefore PD359 is cancelled tonight.
The HS [headstart... first outbound flight of the morning - we generally call them "originators"] PD352/Jan 25 would have had no equipment at this point due to the DIV on T911 so rather than cancelling the HS, they had T909 returned to YYC so the schedule won’t be out of sync and those pax [passengers] on todays 352 won’t be stranded in out-station.

Whoever wrote that abbreviated everything unnecessarily just to flex on people.
There's no way anybody besides an airport worker would know what a HS is.

Porter almost always tankers nearly full fuel out of Calgary because their load factors are terrible. Lots of open payload to carry our cheap fuel.
