Even if this turns out to be true, it doesn't give full info about any particular flight. Because of all the cancellations, many of UA's airplanes and crews are now in the wrong place, it will take them a certain amount of time to sort that all out.
UA646 ORD-EWR already canceled for tomorrow, along with most other ORD-EWR from what I heard from the rebooking agent on the premier line just now.

has anyone had any success sweet talking the phone agents into reaccommodation for flights departing on 11/2?
