That is going to be the biggest problem. NYC looks to be pummeled with flood, and knowing NYC "work quality", I suspect most major highways will have dangerous floods and pot holes, translation: nightmare traffic everywhere.

JFK is partially flooded and not expected to reopen until Wednesday evening.

I don't think anything will arrive earlier than the CX 888 on Thursday morning.

Any CX metal stuck on JFK tarmac?

Last CX flight out of JFK was the 845 at 1:30am Monday. No other CX planes on the ground.

Update
 

Parents made it safely to Chicago on the CX 806 today. They were supposed to fly to LGA tomorrow, but the airport will be closed tomorrow due to flooding. They are flying to BOS tonight and taking a car service to their home, about a 3 hour drive.

Is there any aircraft stuck at NYC airports?

No, as previously stated.

Looks like CX said it will resume all Thursday services. JFK is reopened for "limited services" Wednesday (today), and flights are slowing resuming.

I was unable to do OLCI for my Nov. 1st flight until today, so it does look like Nov. 1st the flights will be resume.

I was invited to OLCI for my 0130 ex JFK flight to HKG On 2November will do so shortly that means CX metal will be coming in tomorrow for sure. As I see it the 1455 departure tomorrow will be the first out of JFK ( possibly delayed) with normal service thereafter.

I suspect there will be very limited catering, though. i should have booked via Vancouver :(

Yep, seems to be the case for my 11/1 flight as well. I'm on 889, you?

Apparently calling CX is not an option right now. It says to email them, then the call takes me to a busy signal.
