This has been exactly my experience with my past 3 trips on AA. First one, ATL-ORD, was cancelled the night before with no explanation and forced me to reroute in a lower class of service ATL-LAX in order to finally make it to Japan. The next one, delayed 3 hours ATL-DCA. Most recent one, ATL-ORD again, cancelled the night before and delaying our arrival in YVR from 12:25PM to 8:30PM.
Edit: Meant DCA, not IAD.
