Alaska refiles its T-100 data

Readers may recall our post on September 28th, where we noted that the airline had misfiled its T-100 fuel data. Today, we have a follow-up with some positive news.

The airline responded to our post with an explanation, which we added to the previous post as an update.  Last Friday afternoon, we received an email from the Deputy Director, Bureau of Transportation Statistics, U.S. Department of Transportation, noting: “I just confirmed with our Office of Airline Information that the corrected data from Alaska Airlines, mentioned in their email to you on October 4, has been loaded into TranStats. Once TranStats goes through its daily update cycle, the tables should display correctly“.

And what do you know?  The data looks plausible this morning.

The following chart from our data audit shows the trend we are looking for.

The quick reaction and data fix is appreciated. A win for all.
