That's all in the DOT data here: http://www.rita.dot.gov/bts/sites/ri...ion/index.html - don't have the time to go through it again now.

I'm not sure what you're asking for though. UA has a large section on their website that explains that the midwest of the US is experiencing severe weather, that many flights, etc. have been cancelled and providing instructions on how to rebook. What's your point? That they're lying? Are you saying that they should have to publicly detail every operational decision they make, including the inputs to that decision, how they are weighted, what alternatives they have, what the costs of each option are, etc?
