I guess YTZ to YUL or YOW escape today fares no better.

We tried to do OLCI last night, but were unable to complete the check in due to document check required. Was at the airport at 05:00 but all kiosks were down at that point and there were hundreds of people in line.
Finally made it to DTW where we missed our connection to BOS.
Next is a BOS-SNN mileage run on a separate ticket that we are trying to salvage.

AC at Buffalo, NY, USA (BUF)
Am sitting in the USAirways Club at BUF and an AC aircraft (looks like a 319) just landed. Anyone know what is going on? It's generating lots of chatter and curiousity. Hope it's just a weather diversion and not an emergency diversion. Limited international flights into BUF so not sure if they'll be able to get off the plane if there are no border services officers on duty.
