US cuts all PM flights PHL-BOS Tgiving day

So I was booked on the 7:30 PM nonstop, thought this would allow me to have an (early) Tgiving dinner with the family and MIL, got a call from my travel agent that US had cancelled *all* flight PHL-BOS that afternoon and evening. Checked the US website and she is right. US rebooked me at 11-something AM - yeah, that'll go over well at home.

TA intervened with US and got me on the 8:15 Friday morning flight with no add/collect since driven by US schedule change.

I know loads are generally light on Tgiving but amazing to me they cancelled *everything* after noon. I mean, there was a 7:30PM, and 8:30PM and an 11 pm when I chose the 7:30. Not to mention the 6 hourly flights at 1:15, 2:15, etc to 6:15 in the afternoon.

Just a heads up in case some of you are in the same boat. This is the only route I will fly US anymore as the hourly nonstops are tough to beat vs a UA connection thru IAD.
