[A Small World]

What a stressful morning we had.

We received an Email first thing this morning from Air France to say our flight tomorrow had been cancelled.


Fortunately after numerous phone calls to Expedia and Air France we managed to get a new flight going at 9.00 tomorrow morning instead of 7.30 in the evening.

This meant we had to rearrange work schedules and book time off, arrange it with DDs school, change times with BS transports and change our car parking booking at the airport.

Of course the good side is it gives us an extra day there so we are now rethinking our plans and food options

Glad it's everything sorted now but what a stress :scared1:

[gemmybear83]

Good job you check your emails - you could have just turned up at the airport! What was the reason?

Glad its all sorted now and you get more time in the parks :goodvibes

[karenmoloney]

Glad you got eveything sorted out. They didn't give you much notice. Lucky you checked your emails this morning (something I don't do every day), otherwise you would be very stuck.

[A Small World]

Thanks everyone - We're glad it got sorted but was a bit of a nightmare at 8.15 this morning.

Luckily DH was working at home first thing so logged onto Emails as he on the PC otherwise we'd just be finding out now.

They couldnt give us a reason for the cancellation

More airline companies are cancelling flights if they are not fully booked as it is too costly to run a half filled plane


Glad you got things sorted Small World - have a lovely time :lovestruc

You would have thought they would go more than 24 hours notice though!

[Dianetigger]

So pleased that you got everything sorted out, so now I'm looking out the window in the morning to wave to you!!

Have a great time and just think of all that extra time in the parks - wonderful (now it's all sorted!)

[PJackson]

Glad you got it sorted - tbh I'm v surprised they just let you know by email - would have thought they would have to telephone you as well!!! :scared1: As others have said, if you hadn't checked your emails it could have been a lot worse for you!

[jillrobinson]

Thank goodness your OH read your emails, so glad that you were able to sort out a new flight. :goodvibes

[joolz1910]

Nightmare, but yay for more time in the parks! Hope you have a fantastic time!

I have a friend flying out on Sunday with Air France. She checked the Air France website, and there is a strike from Friday till Monday and 50% of flights are to be cancelled. I think anyone going with Air France should have a look at the Website for more info ( not meaning to be a worry wart!!)

[ukstitch]

As it's strike related - here's hoping for an easy, stress free journey back :scared1:

[hollymattbenmilo]

[mummybear]

The site says that the strike ends Midnight on Monday.

[hollymattbenmilo]

[Ware Bears]

Phew!! What a scare :scared1: glad you got it sorted and hope you are having fun in the parks at this moment. :wizard:
