The system supposedly sent out those emails by error, check your flights next week with a UA rep as they might be active!

My daughter is on flight 91 this Thursday. Should I be worried that it might be canceled?

Is it advisable to book another flight on elal next week just in case her flight gets canceled this week?

It seems like the night flight is good for Thursday.

Interestingly tonight's flight looked sold out but flew with some empty seats, so the person on stand-by was able to fly.   
If it continues like this, this might be an option.
Always praying for delayed baggage.

My son and many of his friends were supposed to come home today on UA.  I called UA and they booked him (B"H and BE"H) on Sunday.  I am very concerned that they will cancel next week as well. 

Sadly, I am not experienced on this kind of thing.  As such I would greatly, greatly appreciate any and all advice and guidance as to how to get him home.

Thanks very much!

Nobody knows what Israel will do. I doubt Israel knows Israel will do.

DL cancelled their TLV-JFK for tonight after telling me yesterday it will operate.

Thanks Dan. In case we didn't know that already, this week has definitely proven that.

Guess we will wait and see if tonight's DL flight from JFK>TLV takes off. (How close to the flight do you think they can still cancel that?)

Had a word with DL and UA rep based in Israel (they usually know best about Israel based operations), They confirmed that they will each have 1 daily flight starting tomorrow NYC-TLV and TLV-NYC Delta will operate from JFK tonight and tomorrow night TLV-JFK and that will last throughout next week as well. UA will be cancelling all morning flights at least throughout next week.

Combination of luck and a ridiculous amount of miles.

Now they let me know that they will be restoring UA085 starting Mar16, who knows how this will all work out.

Whats the chances of getting on to the ua91 flight if you go on standby?
Keep calm and move on
