No issues tonight in DEN-SEA. We were 50 minutes late departing DEN because of the late arriving aircraft from SEA (presume it was being deiced).
Did notice several cancellations on the arrivals board though.
Looks like another snowstorm is coming Monday, although not as many inches forecast.

scheduled to fly out of Seattle to MKE Monday st 12:20 pm. Any thoughts about potential cancellation due to weather at this time slot due to snow related issues?

we wish they would extend the original day of travel to include Monday, 11th. Would like to change but waiting for travel waiver to get updated . New storm warning issued this morning in SEA for storms 3 and 4.

Hopefully AS extends through at least Tuesday when they do extend. There’s a window Monday morning when it should be fairly possible to escape, but those seats are gonna go fast, and the longer the airlines wait to file the waiver, the harder it is for Tuesday travelers to move forward their plans and thread the needle...

I am uncertain of what was on the website on Saturday morning but I called about rescheduling our 2/13 departure & was allowed to change flights through a CSA. No change fees & no additional charge. We are Golds so the change fee waiver was a given. I wish I had taken a screen shot to confirm that our 2/13 departure date was included....

My flight for Monday (tomorrow) with all the crazy weather in Seattle this week makes me want to just not travel for work this week but rebook for same flight in May. Will they just charge me the difference in potential ticket price (or refund the price difference if any)? Or does the trip need to be booked within the next week or so.

With the waivers is there a time frame in which a flight change for the same flight would need to be scheduled?

I rebooked proactively to the day BEFORE rather than the day AFTER. I see now that by the terms of the waiver, I can only get a waiver of fees if I move to a flight on a later day, not the day before. Am I not doing them a favor by taking an open earlier seat to free up one seat the will need for all the rebookings?

Would let me change leaving the same city for a later date (Tuesday instead on Monday february 11) without added charge. but would not let me do an alternate return flight from same cities without the difference in ticket fare. I’m leaving a day later which I’ve already made arrangement for earlier today so didn’t need the change. But since I’m going out a day later I need to stay a day longer. Would like to use this reservation to get a new return flight date within the date range but online would not let me do it without the significant fare difference due to the short lead time.
My return flight would have been returning back to Seattle.
