I'm sitting at BDL right now and the GA offered me VDB compensation to depart on a flight tomorrow. It's rather generous ($800) so I asked If they'd give me a hotel and the agent said yes so I agreed should they need me.
But might they use the the WX as an "excuse" not to give me a hotel, even though to me this is a VDB situation?

Oh boy, flying DUB-JFK-LAX on Wed. Tomorrow (Tues) DUB-JFK has been canceled. Hopefully late Wed things will be operating. Called and offered to do DUB-LHR-LAX (as LHR-LAX is wide open) but said nope, you gotta pay fees.
And to be a DYKWIA -- there goes my JFK-LAX upgrade Wed. Normally not that worried but it will be my first ever miss on that route, going back to being PM just after the merger.
Hope everybody stays safe...

763 at CLE
Flight 32 operated BRU-JFK B763 then operated 8939 to CLE but now flying 8849 to ATL. Why would it not just go to ATL from JFK unless this was a last minute change.
I figured this out. 8939 brought the Portland Trailblazers to CLE as their game was cancelled. 8849 was the ferry to ATL. Neet they got to fly a 767 usually a 757.
