We were returning from MCO tomorrow on SW. When we went to change online no flights would pull up so we called them. They wouldn't rebook on anything through Thursday. We just opted to stay until Friday AM instead of trying to go to airport and waiting all day. Hope to be good by then. Felt better when the decision was made and could get back to vacation.

Good call, two extra days of vacation and no need to worry about waiting at the airport all day tomorrow

Hey Cuse - I want you to know that had you not posted this I'd just have gotten on a plane and missed two extra days in Barca . Delta accommodated me with one phone call. My only worry now is seat assignment for the long flight from Barca to ATL. You did a good thing for this Watertown/ Ogdensburg guy. Much appreciated.

Cuse you the man. Flights still look good. You should look into FlightRadar24. Only flights canceled were spirit with one united flight diverted.

I usually browse flightaware to look for delays or cancellation. I've used fltradar24 before only once or twice, what advantages would you say that site has compared to the others? Also that united diversion looks like it was a planned stop in okc

Condor Air out of MSY Wednesday night at 8. Keeping my fingers crossed.

This flight looks like it may be delayed a half hr tonight, it's tough to turn a 767 in an hour for an international flight. The inbound from Frankfurt is delayed an hour (arriving at 7pm) LINK

ETA: Other than that, most of the flights in/out of the LA area are going rather well today

So long as my 8:20 flight gets off, all is good! I was in full panic mode Monday. Feeling much better now.

Anyone need assistance with anything? Got out of BTR on a 9:40am flight once I woke up and realized the sun was out. The 11:35am flight I was on hasn't left yet and I would've missed my connection to NYC had I stayed on it so things worked out this morning . Weather in atlanta is mostly cloudy with the ceiling relatively low to the ground, BTR was very windy this morning

On time for me still this evening through ATL. May end up with worse weather issues in ATL than BTR.

It's good here as of current, just sat down on atl-jfk but we're waiting on the gate agent to recheck about 20 people's passports since it wasn't done at check-in somehow... I'm assuming you're on the 646pm or 907pm based on our similar hatred for the crj-200

Have a buddy coming in from Denver. was scheduled for yesterday arrival at MSY. United told him he could not change flight or get a refund/waiver. they bumped him to MSY arrival to Friday at 4:50.

Now, they say the plane will be late and will not arrive in MSY until 6:45.

Tell him to switch to a flight through houston. Chicago has had some terrible delays this morning due to thunderstorms and the routing of his flight from denver is raleigh-chicago-oklahomacity-denver-nola. The flight from raleigh still hasn't taken off for chicago yet, everything is backed up by 2 - 3 hours
