Also, there were some different options in terms of first legs on the MR I'm looking at - if my first flight was cancelled due to weather, could I ask to get put on another flight that would get me back 'on track' (or should that be en route? )

Apologies if these seem dumb questions, but there's a first time for everyone - and searching hasn't come up with answers yet...
