[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean if you're either at a place and trying to get home or you have travel and you don't have the financial resources to replace the flights, of course you're just going to hope you're in the 30%.

Yes, I'd probably just try to book another flight.  But I also realize that's because I have the money to do so.  Most people don't.

Don't blame people for trying to get what they paid for and being unable to just drop hundreds or thousands on a replacement.[/quote]

Yes. Obviously 30-40% of people are getting out. We flew home 12/24. 2/3 of the departure board was cancellations. By some crazy stroke of luck, our flight departed on time and without issue, other than we had a pilot flying in the cabin, and at the last second he got off and said he was being sent somewhere else and a different pilot took his seat. We knew we were lucky but it was before we understood the full extent of what was happening around the country. I feel more lucky everyday.[/quote]
