Had it been a mechanical issue, the likelihood would have been pretty good. With weather, it is less so (since it is not their "fault") but is still possible. Nothing will happen, though, unless you contact AA.

Cheers.

I see thank you. Is there a time limit or frame for contacting them or can I take care of it when I return from my trip next month?
