One of my flights was listed as cancelled. I'm hoping that it's not because of weather en route, but because the aircraft is stranded in MSY or something. It wouldn't be a good sign if it wasn't possible to route around the weather. Or maybe they have to just cancel some flights that are routinely going to be routed back and forth around the weather and this is an attempt to not let things get too out of line.

I was automatically booked on a later flight out of IAH. I called reservations and was greeted by name after entering my Onepass number. The agent booked me on a later flight out of LAX to better match up with the later flight out of IAH. Of course, confirmed in first class (booked in A class) all the way.

Travel safely.
