Why do people sleep in airports? I always see these people onthe news...

Most airlines (unless they're JetBlue) cancel flights at least a few hours before their scheduled departure. Of course, there are still occasionally last minute cancellations that do occur and they can be a real pain in the butt. Still, it doesn't hurt to call ahead -- except for cynics like you it seems. I can't speak to most, but I have never had a flight cancelled on me. My brother has had two, both times it wasn't cancelled yet when he arrived to the gate, and in one case wasn't cancelled until about 10 minutes after boarding should have begun. So I would suggest that it is certainly possible for a flight to be cancelled hours before it leaves, but it's also possible for there to be no notice at all. I agree 100%, and I did mention that possibility (last minute cancellations) on my prior post. And when it does happen, it can be a real pain to make alternative plans. But most flights that have been canceled on me have been due to bad weather and the airlines had canceled them hours before the scheduled departure. - Peter |
