But things don't seem to be that bad at LGW. On the other hand, when I browsed through some UK news website, the fog situation at LHR is almost - but not quite - as big a news as the snow in Denver.
Anyways, thanks for all the responses. I'll call the Elite desk and see if they can switch us now. If not, I'll definitely try the $25 confirmed standby.
The consequence of missing our Ryanair flight out of STN is too severe, even if we have travel insurance that covers this type of things.
Agree that the two planes from LGW coming to IAH today are late. But that doesnt mean that the IAH-LGW are using the same aircraft.
I'm on CO4 today and it still shows on-time out of E7. Neither of the two late planes are coming into E7.
When I flew CO 4 in July, the inbound plane had come from CDG.
I think they juggle things around for various reasons.
Are you sure that the Ryan Air flight will be flying? Many inter-EU flights are being cancelled, although agree that LGW is better than LHR.
Good luck.
