Hurricane pay question

Relatively new and haven’t dealt with this before...if you live in the path of a hurricane and airports are closed/can’t leave your family, but have a trip...are there any provisions to pay protect you for the trip, or are you just out of luck? Thanks...

Out of luck. They will probably work with you and let you out of trip, but no pay protection. At least not before the storm. After, if you have catastrophic damage, I’ve heard of them paying for missed trips. Not sure where in contract that falls under.

You can also get released from partial trips. Fly as much as your trip as possible and get some pay.

Complete bull crap statement. It’s the contract. It’s how it works. Big boy pants.

I hope everything works out for all of you on the East coast of FL! So far, things have gone your way, with Dorian turning north before getting too close. Let’s hope it stays at least this far off shore while it follows the coast. You’re in our prayers.

Yikes....someone has been obviously working too much. Time to take a vacay. No one is making a personal judgement on your GS acceptance.
