For those with cancelled flights on Monday due to WX, did you get your refunds if you found alternative transportation?
Me, yep post 223 above.

One of those that were on the chartered boat called AS and what i assume is a new rep was refunding to refund. One of the other passengers got on the line and AS refunded. I was ready to call the gold line.

I heard there was a shouting match at the AS terminal between employee(s) and passengers. Probably could have gotten a nice voucher if i were on the flight

2015 has just been loaded. Everyone who has joined before is of course welcome to join again! Check it out and book your tickets soon, as saver space tends to disappear very, very quickly (sometimes even in a day or two)!

See you all then!
