I just looked and I think the EWR-OSL flight is full, perhaps they have already re-booked you on it. They also show an earlier flight to AMsterdam 6:50 with a connection to OSL. I would recommend that you first check your record on the internet and see if it has already been updated for tomorrow, and if not get on the phones NOW.
Thanks!
I talked to someone at CO on the phone and they said that I can try an earlier flight to EWR on NWA. They have also booked me on a later flight from MSP - EWR, then EWR-CDG-OSL. I don't mind doing this, but I am a little bit nervous to get anywhere near EWR today. Assuming I can make it on the NWA flight, what is the probability that the EWR-OSL leg with go? I assume that the TATL flight probably have somewhat high priority in situations like this.
The only reason that I would still like to make the connection to OSL today is that I have a course that I *should* be at in Oslo tomorrow morning around 10:30. If the EWR-OSL flight is delayed even an hour, the odds that I will make the course in Oslo in time are slim to none. Other than the course, there really is no reason to be back so soon, and I have no problem leaving in another day or two. What are the possibilities of asking CO to put me on a MSP-AMS-OSL (or through DTW or ORD, etc., if necessary) so that I might make it to Oslo early tomorrow morning?
Thanks!
