I am looking at your flight tonight and as of current it is showing as on time. You are scheduled on the last Southwest flight before the storm (they have already cancelled everything for tomorrow) so fingers crossed for you

Glad you didn't book the 555pm today, United already cancelled that flight. Enjoy the extra 2 days out West

MTJ-DFW-JAN tomorrow. Supposed to land a little before 7:00pm, but not sure how that’ll shake out now.

On the last DL flight out of BTR today. They oversold and started off by offering $1k for anyone to get off the flight.

Too early to tell, need the storm to hit and see the damage

Eta: Also looks like our resident poster kbdos's flight is in fact leaving Nola as we speak. Glad we were able to get someone and their family out from this thread LINK

Saw your flight is cancelled tomorrow to Jackson from Houston. You need help finding options?

Eta:Have them rebook you on delta for free. If they won't do it, just take the refund and buy a one-way on delta for $148. Flight leaves at 8am, there's a ton of options for cheap and you should get back. United cancelled everything to the gulf coast, AA and Delta look like they're going to try

Eta 2: Category 4 hurricane as of current at 2am CT, not sure you truly want to head down that way. Do you have a place to stay in Charleston?

Can someone give me some advice ? I have a flight on Friday the 1st from Nola to Costa Rica with a stopover in Houston on United. If the flight is canceled or I can’t get to MSY will United let me get a flight from an alternate airport? Or could I just drive to Houston and catch the flight from there ?

Get on the phone with United and they will give you your options.

I'd wait to call until we know how bad the damage is. They should be willing to rebook, but may not do it now since it still hasn't passed

Theoretically, I could drive to Houston and board the plane there, right?

Yes, but you need to let them know if that's what you end up doing or else they'll cancel your whole reservation if you don't take the MSY-IAH flight.

Hopefully we know more by tonight how MSY holds up

2:30 flight from dfw-Jan cancelled. I bailed on the 5:30 flight and am renting a car. I sure hope at this point I gambled correctly.
