I have not been charged extra once for changing the routing of the pass as long as the destination and departure have remained the same.

I think there are significant, personal safety issues to having hotel information public - not just for us, but the FAs too.
I don't mind the information about places to eat or things to do in the area - but saying what hotels we use is just a bad idea.

Can someone tell me why the world's biggest airline is afraid of snow. Didn't we just merge with a very northern bunch of guys who fly in this stuff??
I ask because they're once again canceling flights for the NYC area. I can understand ATL, but LGA and JFK - don't they have snow plows etc?????

I'm OK with avoiding the Passenger suits; but can we get at least a day closer to the event. They're canceling things for Wed am and last week they canceled a bunch of flights for snow that never really developed.

I think SWA cancelled all operations last Sunday in BWI. We're not the only ones cancelling flights left and right.
Also, 4 hour taxis to de-ice pads is just not going to happen anymore. Coex guys, remember EWR when a 777 or 764 moved into the ballpark to deice? Yeah, 3-4 hours.

Again BWI and DCA made sense but the NYC airports were only supposed to be peripherally affected. If a day out it looks like we're going to get schwacked, then cancel to your heart's content but two days out??

That I do not know. I guess they're being proactive. As everyone says its probably due to the fear of long taxis or crew timeouts.
