I suspect this is the "law of unintended consequences"....The "Passengers Bill of Rights" has caused proactive cancelling everytime Jim Cantore puts on his parka and goes to an airline hub....Nobody wants another "stuck on the tarmac" horror story to hit the news with the corresponding stupid legislation from DC....I've noticed a huge change this year on this issue...
