For several years, whenever I fly into an airport in the New York/New Jersey area, the whole thing seems to be a mess. The staff are angry and standoffish. Everyone there seems to hate their job and be doing the bare minimum. Very different experience than most other US airlines, where there's a significant degree of US friendliness/hospitality.
I actively avoid flying into Newark or any NYC airport. Especially, when there's a potential complicating factor like a holiday or weather. They all just seem on the verge of collapse.
Very sad to hear about this crash. Quite frankly, this could have been a whole lot worse too. Only two deaths is a bit of a miracle.
