As of today, I have no elite status. I wonder if that had anything to do with it? My original itinerary was only $212 - and they automatically reissue as a "Y", so I don't know.
It sounds like the storm did not hit PHL as hard as I thought it would. Oh well, no worries, I was home and logged into the network by 10am and actually got something done.
Most of my co-workers opted not to come in the office today, and those that did left around 1pm because they feared the roads would only get worse. I just hope this is it for the season!
Have a safe flight out.

PHL was included maybe it wasnt up when you were Smart enough to have teh sense to get out before you werent able to or before that flight might have become Full.
If I was you Id call CO Not today but tommorrow or Sun and explain you held off calling so that those who had to get the info on their flights or rebooked were able to,. But that you feel that you shouldnt have been charged the $200 fee since 1 free change was allowed. If they hit you with but You did so befoer hand, so Id say why should I be charged for having known what was to happen. Maybe you can get them to at least issue you a Voucher for the $200 off a future flight.
I wouldnt let it go, as long as they have PHL down on their advisory as they do. It doesnt say the same fare basis only the same class, which is coach in your case and thats how you were tkted and flew in the end.
