Actually, we're about equidistant from JFK and LaGuardia.
Do you think they would actually be willing to switch it to the JFK flight? (I've been reluctant to admit it, but part of the issue is that I promised my mother I would bring her 6 quarts of frozen matzoh ball soup and I'm worried that the round trip to the airport and waiting to hear about our status might move them close to defrosting (yes, I know, I can pack gel packs.

1-they're not a liquid they're solid (frozen) 2-do you see that there are carrots, celery, noodles and chicken in there? Does that seriously look like a threatening object to you? (I'm a good cook so no cracks about how threatening They might be :-)
They should be able to switch you to the JFK flight no problem if it's still this wide open. If they need you to VDB and there is RU space avalible on the JFK flight you would clear immediately into F when they rebook. While the JFK flight is on a RJ, I would take F on a CR9 over Y on a mainline jet any day (I'm sure anyone would)
