Exactly TheMadBrewer. I have over 2MM and 28 years and 2 strandings. 1 stranding ice storm in MSP and they closed the airport stuck in DTW. Got a FS Marriott. 1 stranding at DCA a huge storm came in everything from Richmond to BOS was closed. Again FS Marriott. I even got home the night of the famed Halloween Blizzard in 1991. I will miss NWA.
