I just asked them to put me on the nonstop , and she has me backed up on the nonstop , but told me to wait until it gets closer to the flight .

What would Pandy do??? (S)he would get on the most overbooked flights and hope for a bump or go for max segments to max miles.

For some reason they don't want to give me DL flights , even though they are DL .
If all else fails there is a MEM-DCA flight and I could rent a car . This is still a business trip and my original flight back to EWR was cancelled so Im still
"working"

My CO MEM-EWR flight was cancelled , CO booked me on
NorthWelta MEM-DTW-PHL ( I have a 7 AM departure from PHL tomorrow)
My MEM-DTW has an unscheduled maintenance and is delayed 40 minutes
which only leaves 20 minutes for the Connection DTW-PHL
If I miss that IM :rolleyes:

they have offered to put me on nonstop MEM-PHL at 6:45 PM
but the flight is on an RJ and with the winds howling I am afraid that will get cancelled .

What would Pandy Do ?

The high winds are supposed to drop off by 7PM. The way things are now, it's not going to let up without a fight.

That would be nice ^
They just announced the original flight MEM-DTW is only delayed 4 minutes .

ETA: equipment swap was reason the delay has been reduced to 4 minutes.

Hopefully all will be quiet by the morning since i'm flying back from SFO tonight.

I'm hoping for a bump, so we shall see what happens.

You mean last night when I closed that window in the Crowne Plaza Monroe that had the drape blowing out of it I should have asked for Priority Club points. Darn. :(

Octamom is just an embarrassment and her fertility specialist should have his/her license revoked. :mad:
