Upcoming Winter Storm Airline Travel Advisories- All Airlines
Posted on 1/20/26 at 8:41 pm
Posted on 1/20/26 at 8:41 pm
It's that time of the year again
. With a massive snow/ice/sleet/rain storm predicted for this weekend, suggestions would be to try and beat the storm before it's expected to pick up. Saturday and Sunday look nasty across the south so definitely try to avoid DFW, BNA, CLT, and ATL.

Coming into IAH on Sunday night from PTY. Let's see how that goes!

Um...i'm going to take a guess you're not going to get in. International flights probably a better chance, but still...
Forecast for Houston, not even IAH, is AM ice. What airline are you on? Flexibility to change plans? Or are you okay getting stuck in PTY for an extra night?
If your plane is coming from Houston, decent shot it doesn't make it out on Sunday morning
That didnt take long to figure out you're on the 441pm getting into IAH at 810pm. That plane comes from houston and leaves at 10am. I'd highly recommend changing to a different flight if you can. If you want to get stuck in PTY, then you'll have a chance to change to a flight on Monday if you want. But still be cautious that it doesn't look like houston gets above freezing until Monday morning around 11am. Runways will need to thaw out

Is this the part of the thread, that regardless of the advisories issued in the South, people still think i's a great idea to fly through MSP, ORD, EWR, LGA, JFK, etc. during the winter and not expect delays?
Posted on 1/20/26 at 9:29 pm to CuseTiger
Watching closely
Schedule to fly from SLC to MSY on Saturday morning (delta) and I think I’ll be okay but won’t let my guard down.

Might check out a soccer game Sunday if we're jammed up.
Not seeing any waivers yet.

Waiting for a frontier waiver
Posted on 1/20/26 at 10:17 pm to LemmyLives
Funny enough, we booked the trip exactly to best avoid a winter scenario like this. Oh well.
Posted on 1/21/26 at 12:52 am to CuseTiger
Delta Airlines AMS->ATL->MEM on Saturday. Hoping for a Delta advisory very soon and I’ll be going home early..hopefully.
Posted on 1/21/26 at 5:21 am to CuseTiger
I should be able to miss this fiasco on Friday MCO > GPT on Delta. My flight is mid-day.

Not good. That lft-iah will be one of the first to cancel. How badly do you need to be in Chicago? Saturday looks okay for IAH before Saturday night

When United posts the waiver, change your flight to Monday for free. Don't take the first flight of the day because that's assuming the plane gets out of iah Sunday night. I think the 11am would leave Houston on Monday morning which is still iffy if it's not above freezing there until midday Monday

Change immediately when the waiver is up. You need to get in and out of ATL before Sat
Posted on 1/21/26 at 6:30 am to CuseTiger
Any idea when delta will come out with the waiver? Goal is to get to MEM by 6 or so Friday evening.
Posted on 1/21/26 at 6:57 am to BootheelSoldier
Deltas waiver is up! I'm at work so can't post it but it's on their site
Posted on 1/21/26 at 6:59 am to CuseTiger
Got rebooked. Should land in ATL at 3:35PM. MEM may be iffy but at least gets us back in the states. Fingers crossed.
