The flight's in 12 hours and I haven't decided yet. Obviously if they cancel, my decision's made for me. However, I have to be back in S.F. Sunday night, or latest Mon. morning to catch a real trip to SOF, or the gf will kill me.

I'm in St Lucia, waiting for my flight to San Juan. AA has rebooked everyone flying into New York, Boston and DC, and does not have availability til Monday. They are not helping with hotels in San Juan. I'm not impacted, but everyone checking in around me was.

No one will be doing anything in BOS for some time today. At my house under one of the main landing routes, visibility is about 200 yards/meters. Wind gusts are 40+ mph and the snow is coming down at a several inches per hour rate. Staying in and relaxing.

Just checked, and YX214 flight out of BOS Monday morning is canceled, no doubt due to the fact that neither YX207 (crew) nor YX208 (equipment) are flying into BOS tonight . . .
So I'm taking a day off tomorrow and flying out Tuesday morning. Yay!

Wife is on CO 60 EWR-BRU tonight.
As of 11:21 EST, Continental's web site still shows the flight as "on time". But the FAA's web site says EWR is closed (along with 6-8 others in the region) with no ETA on re-opening.
And the inbound (CO 61 BRU-EWR) was diverted to CLE. Estimated departure time from CLE was an hour ago, but plane still on the ground.
Looks like CO is sending all it's inbounds to west of the storm.

I am now back in Europe after an intresting return journey. My flights out of EWR was cancelled but I didnt know that until I reached the airport. When I left Philly(Yes I started my return journey there) nothing was cancelled.
When I reached the Newark trainstation the problems started. The airtran didnt work and I didnt reach the check in until 40 minutes prior to departure. While there they said that ewr was closed. So I had to take the train back to Philly again and I didnt check in for my MUC flight until 40 minutes prior to departure. I am glad that I made it.
Time to sleep.
