Bllizzard this weekend
Anyone flying to the mid-Atlantic this weekend? I'm SFO --> PHI Sat. night. Should be interesting. I do need to be back in S.F. Monday morning, esp. as I'm flying to Bulgaria at 2pm.

I am flying EWR-PIT-PHL-MUC-ARN on Sunday afternoon. Will I have problems? Some of my connections are not very long but atleast its ok according to minimum connecting time.
I do beleive that the US flight out of PHL to MUC is the last europeanbound flight.
What if I miss a connection and need to spend the night at the airport? Will US get me a hotel? I am both UA Star Gold and LH Star Gold if that helps.

Wife and I on the 8:45 AM flight from
IAD to LGA on sunday morning.
This is going to be exciting!
To add to the fun, we are driving from BWI to IAD early Sunday morning to make the flight.
Going to be a LOT of variables in this one.

Blizard?
I was supposed to go LAS-JFK Sunday and re-scheduled for Tuesday for business reasons. Looks like it was the right thing to do indeed.
Having lived and worked in Las Vegas, Cali, and FL for the last few years I kinda forget there are such things as snow storms.
