Yes

You should be fine, most reports predict the storm to come no earlier than monday.

AA offering free changes and I tried getting them to put me on something tomorrow but they wont touch it. Spoke to elal and they said "last year they thought it would be bad (Irene) and it was nothing so we're not changing anything yet"

My parents are booked (thru BA) on Oct. 29 on AA0701 5:40am JFK - MIA.

Good luck for them...

I'd love to change it for tonight, was wondering who'll give it to me easier, AA or BA?

EWR, and likely LGA/JFK will cease all OPs at 1900.

Forget BA. Deal only with AA. If you must travel, go to the airport ASAP and request to be waitlisted. Expect to spend hours in the airport.

G'luck reaching AA on the phone.

UA cancelled most NYC flights on Tue. DL/AA still running normal operations. B6 began cancellations.

Thanks PG! Their flight has been canceled already.

I will be refunded automatically, or I need to call BA?

A friend flew back from MIA in the morning, he claims he had a roller coaster ride...

I'm not sure my mother would've been able to weather that(storm)...

Might as well wait, their hold time are probably insane.

There is a flood coming! It is a warning from G-d, for you have sinned. Repent before it is too late!

I am Noah, and I approve this message.
