so they have about 100 flights a day on average going out..............and if one terminal is shut down.................the ripple effect occurs because there are only so many gates in each terminal..................but the orange temper tantrum.............does not get that treatment, he gets his VIP treatment where the airport is shut down and the air space is restricted.................
