Doesn't matter if none of the rockets worked. We are not in the military any more, no mission critical stuff here. We do not fly into war zones. Can't take that chance. If there is a slight chance, we don't go. This stuff is under constant evaluation for threats. If another flight went, then the evaluation for that flight didn't meet the criteria for cancelling.
But it does seem, UAL could have done a better job explaining the situation. Or, maybe we did, and the media got it wrong. Who'd a thought?
