JFK Update 2 10/31/12


Good evening Team,

Fantastic job getting in and getting it done today! Unfortunately, the heat will really be turned on tomorrow and through the weekend as wethe rest of the airport community try to get all of the stranded folks to their destinations safely. You will notice TSA brothers and sisters from across the country flowing in tonight and tomorrow to assist as we feel the crunch of this difficult situationhang in there over the next few days.

Good news is that mass transportation is quickly being revivedbad news is that we no longer get the opportunity to park at the terminals for free after tonight. We will continue to run the shuttles tonight and tomorrow and will reassess the need for them at the end of the day (Thursday 1 Nov).
Finding folks has been a challenge, and we still have no contact with about 400 of our teama list of the names of those people will be distributed to the terminals tomorrow in hopes that some of you may either have better contact numbers or know how we might reach themwe will not stop until we get 100% accountability, even if it means canvassing areas to find them. Please help us out in this regard.

Many of you have already worked some long hours, and we are still days from getting closer to normal. We continue to ask you to serve to the extent that you can and will be offering a lot of overtime to get the mission done.please stay safe though.
Our priorities in the next couple of days are:  1) gain 100% accountability, 2) restore 100% security service at JFK, 3) assess the needs of those whove suffered significant loss (and there are many) and assist to the extent possible.

Thank you all for your service!

Honored to serve,

Gary Renfrow
