I noticed a flight with the status "Cancelled recovery" on the Spokane airport website. What does that mean?
I saw that the flight got diverted back to its original departure airport, but I don't understand what the recovery refers to.
"Cancelled recovery" status on the Spokane airport website:
The flight got diverted back to its original departure airport:
Recovery means that a diverted flight has returned (or is en route) to its original departure point.
The flight in question from Phoenix/PHX to Spokane/GEG had taken off, but its arrival was cancelled (probably due to the weather conditions at GEG), and the plane returned to its departure point (PHX).
