That might belong in the pros and cons of where one lives.
UA flies nonstop CLE-FLL in the winter. Who goes to SoFlo in the summer unless it's for a simcha?
I'd take B6, but they only have an evening flight.

How much further south do you think things can go? Key West?

I've adequately disclaimed myself out of liability.

Exatamente!

הוא הדבר אשר דברתי.

Flying into NYC there are so many options. B6 and DL and even Spirit which can work out decently on the spot, have plenty of nonstops between FLL and JFK, LGA and EWR.

The United flight was delayed too! You would’ve missed your connection.

Whichever card he booked the trip on will be paying for his tickets.

Delayed further
If it benefits even just one fellow DDFer, its worth posting it.

Taking off now, all's well that ends well!

Would have been interesting to see what UA GS with an event to catch+UA connection saver would have done in IAD. But the world will never know.

Until next time!

I would guess that if you already boarded the flight to IAD they might have routed you via CVG, otherwise they (or you) might have found an alternate route out of FLL.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!
