Weather waiver for WAS snow (6-7 FEB 10)
I've never flown Jet Blue before. Any chance that, if they know they'll be cancelling flights they'll let me move to an earlier flight without charging me the change fee? Another major storm (by real person standards, not DC standards 
) expected to hit IAD starting Friday afternoon and I have an 8pm flight out of there. Would love to get on the 4-something to Boston instead!

They will frequently issue a "weather waiver" that permits changes when they are reasonably confident that a major weather event will adversely affect operations. They have not yet issued one for Friday but they likely won't until late tonight or (more likely) mid-day tomorrow.

You do have to call, though, so prepare to hold for a long time.
