Safe but stuck in AMS. Got here from LYS on Thursday and have been promised NW61 to JFK for Monday after being told that I would not be able to get out for a week. This may be a repeat of some of the prior posts, but KLM was not carrying passengers to AMS on Thursday who did not have hotel reservations.
Supposedly, all the hotels were fully booked and they did not want anybody sleeping on the floor at Schiphol. There were however, plenty of rooms because most of the Americans did not show up to claim their reservations.
There are many tears and uncertainties about our friends and associates in New York. We desparately need to get home.
