Ugh. If I didn't already have the best possible itinerary booked, I'd try to mess around with getting into a Y or B fare class on a different schedule, and possibly switching back, but it would just be way too much of a pain to try to manage at this point given I can't change it online due to the first flight (CTG-PTY) being a CM flight...

I'd suggest trying to get to ELM as that flight goes through ORD instead of EWR, and renting a car there to drive to ITH. Driving from EWR north may be a problem as some of the worst part of the snow is on the drive from EWR to ITH.
