I’m in Orlando and was going from MCO to CLT to LFT. But now I’m thinking of MCO to DFW to AEX. On with AA now. 555 arrival into AEX.

Do you think 3:30pm or 6L30pm flights will happen out of MSY on Thursday? I haven't changed yet because we will be driving from Lafayette and trying to make sure we can make it to MSY

Given the waiver, I think you could change your flights to leave from Laffy if you wanted. I really don't know about Thursday yet, that will all depend on how Wednesday and Wednesday night go. Weather looks okay for Thursday midday on

As it stands, I'll see about pushing to an afternoon flight out of BTR to DFW. Plenty of connections that would still take me to PHX.

we thought correctly. Intuition usually wins in situations like this

It looks like most of the flights are operating tonight into BTR and MSY. The first flight bank of tomorrow morning actually looks okay at both airports, glad the weather has held off for as long as it has to operate at least for some flights tomorrow.

American has cancelled all flights after 11am out of MSY and 7am out of BTR. Southwest everything after 7am from MSY. Delta still has everything on the schedule for tomorrow but we'll see. United everything cancelled after the 8am to Denver from MSY and the 9:50am from BTR. Southwest the last flight tomorrow is a 10:35am to DCA.

I see the early Thursday morning flights are already cancelled from BTR as well as the planes cannot get in tomorrow night. Same with MSY

Chicken, have them check their flight status with their respective airlines. I seriously doubt anyone is flying before noon in Louisiana.

For Southwest, Looks like all flights before 10 AM tomorrow (Wednesday) out of MSY are still on.

I'm sure that could change.

Everything else has been canceled

For my honeymoon we had to leave the Monday that Ida came by. Originally would've been MSY but we drove a rental to Houston instead. They gave us maybe a 48 hour notice, but they also knew it was coming sooner.

SWA might just tell people to hunker down and wait for a later flight since this storm will be done by the end of the day.

Yeah I found an original last flight at 7am then went to flight aware and found a few flights later going up until 1030am on Southwest. My mistake

Delta still has their full schedule intact for today unless I'm missing an update

Cuse,

I'm supposed to be on United flight 2732 tomorrow at 12:30 out of MSY. How do I track where that plane is at or where it's going this evening.

Flightaware click on track inbound flight and you'll see it's supposed to come from Washington Dulles in the morning. So far on time

Cuse, I rescheduled flight for 6am Friday morning. Should I anticipate any delays at MSY? All day tomorrow should be clear for the airport and planes to get back on schedule I would think

Flight just got cancelled.
I’m thinking I try to get a SW flight to Charleston and rent a car to Columbia. Th ey seem to have lots of flights from here up there, I just don’t know if I should even waste time booking now or wait until the morning.

Don't wait to rebook. Anyone else that has to fly tomorrow is going to rebook tonight if their flight gets cancelled like yours.
