Pilots and crew were in position ready to take off. Passengers were just about to board. |
You think strangers on the internet know the answer? Why don't you ask the airline! |
Sorry about your trip, OP. |
Probably mechanical? |
Just to make you pissed off!!! |
Weather. It snowed at DCA. |
+1. Didn't they make an announcement with some reason? |
Write cutomer service. Tell them you need a letter for travel insurance. They'll give you their reason. |
LMAO OP |
They just don’t like you,OP. |
Thank you. |
Maybe they saw a Black Hawk and got scared? |
No, even the agents were visibly confused. AA made no announcement, just a flashing board with “canceled”, just as passengers were ready to board. |
Something was probably wrong with the plane or the crew was over hours. |
My guess is something mechanical and after recent events they are on edge. But I agree with the recommendation to follow up with customer service. |
