I need to take a later flight from Chicago to Venice in business on Feb 7th.
I have the 2 options :
Chicago - Copenhagen SK 944 2205-1320+!
Copenhagen - Venice SK 2691 1710-1910
or
Chicago - London UA 938 2100-1105+1
London - Frankfurt LH 905 1230-1505
Frankfurt - Venice LH 330 1650-1810
SK only have 1 flight ORD-CPH each week. If the flight is cancelled due to bad weather, I might need to re-issue my RTW ticket.
I would appreciate your view on this.
I believe they will put you on different flights without the need of a reissue in case a flight is cancelled. I had this situation a few years ago and they just put me on a different airline/connection.
In my opinion two connections in LHR and FRA during winter time have a higher risk.
