Flight cancellation - anyone else

Forums:

I'm supposed to be in St John with my kids right now.

Yesterday 9 hours before my San Diego to Miami Redeye was to depart

American sent me an e-mail that flight was cancelled. A while later they told me I had been rebooked on a Monday redeye to Philly

and from there to St Thomas. If they knew anything about USVI covid portal protocol they would know that was impossible, never mind they had just 

taken 33% of my vacation away.

I still haven't been able to contact their "customer service"

and I seem to be out all the house rental money

the $100.00 car rental down payment

the $56.00 in reef safe sunscreen

not to mention the whole vacation.

I thought as part of the airline stimulus money the deal was they were not supposed to lay anyone off

 

I'm flying to Seattle next month and based on a tip someone posted on FB about their flight being canceled, I decided to check and sure enough my flight was changed to the day prior.  Glad I checked.

It's been reported that American and SW specifically are short pilots and planes - expect cancellations if you're book with those carriers, and possibly others. 
 

Rebook with a different carrier?

That sucks. 

I have a friend missed a funeral due to two canceled flights, from two different airlines. 

 

Went to TPA this morning.  Flight delayed; missing connection.  Wait for a phone call, 4 hours. Booked a different airline. Waiting on standby to get home. American Airlines as well.  Really shitty.

A couple of Wednesdays ago Alaska cancelled my direct flight to DC less than 24 hours before I was scheduled to fly, and I wound up hubbing thru Philadelphia on a United flight.  They had no direct flights until Friday.

Jerry : I don't understand. Do you have my reservation?

Rental Car Agent : We have your reservation, we just ran out of cars.

Jerry : But the reservation keeps the car here. That's why you have the reservation.

Rental Car Agent : I think I know why we have reservations.

Jerry : I don't think you do. You see, you know how to *take* the reservation, you just don't know how to *hold* the reservation. And that's really the most important part of the reservation: the holding. Anybody can just take them.

(((holding)))

"eliminate surprise at the airport"

yea instead you get it in an e-mail

American still hasn't called me back

filed appeal with credit card company

It's blatantly obvious to even the Stupid people -- Pilots that fly the Airplanes got those injections,  and those caused Blood - Clotting health problems,  making the Airplane Pilots physically unable to perform their Job.

Even if you have the IQ of Potato,  you prefer that the Airplane Pilot does not have "Heart Attack" and "Drop Dead"  while flying the Airplane.

YES!  That's exactly the same story I heard.

Gee Bobby, I'm sorry your head looks like a potato...      FZ
