Hi all,
I was originally booked to fly to SF from Boston on Virgin America this Tuesday... so right in the middle of hurricane Sandy. I didn't think this would be that big of a deal BUT that flight was just cancelled, fuck! I really need to be there by Wednesday evening although it would be vastly more convenient to spend all of Wednesday there too.
Can anyone w/past experiences comment on how unwise it is to try and book a Tues flight with a different airline? So far more mainstream carriers like Delta, United, etc still have options available. I don't know if this is b/c the big carriers will wait longer before cancelling or if in fact it is still reliable to book. My concern here is that I don't want to book w/another carrier just to have them cancel even closer to the travel date & really leave me with no options.
I could also leave earlier (Monday) but I feel like that would be even worse.
Thanks!
