Darn it.. heads up you guys.. USAir UPDATE

I have just got into Delta's sight and found my itinerary there. I discovered that my flight home is confirmed but... I haven't a seat designed for me. This set off my internal
OVERBOOKING ALARM !!!!

As someone who has been astray in Atlanta for 5 days due to Delta's overbooking, this news forebodes disaster... My Orlando flight arrives just half an hour before my international flight. I am calling the airline tommorrow and try to see if I can leave in an earlier flight. I have learned that my flight to the US will be pretty crowded too. My seat is at the back of the plane with one of the last free seats in the whole aircraft. Let's hope it remains like that: empty....

Livia, I will keep you in my thoughts. I am flying Suncountry from Minnesota and they have changed my flights 3 times all ready. It is getting very old, and their customer service stinks. It will be the last time I fly with them. I will stick with AA or Northwest.


I hope you have an uneventful flight.

Pat, we all need lots of pixie dust! At least I discovered the overbooking signs way before I left home. As I am on vacation, I could be delayed in Atlanta with little loss. I just don't want to be supposedly placed in another flight back home. The other time they did that to me I ended up in Miami airport and had no flight back home either. I had to spend the night at the hotel there and had a terrible experience with them charging my credit card... If I have to be stuck somewhere, I prefer to be stuck in Atlanta, which is a great city. All I can do is call tommorrow and try to get earlier to the airport.

Oh, Livia! This is so crazy, isn't it? I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. Good luck.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for me, too. So far, there's only been one change. I do not want to leave Orlando any earlier than I have to. And, I don't want to arrive any later than I have to. Early in and late out. That way I get the most for my days in WDW. I picked these flights specifically for that reason. If they change anything else, I'm going to be very upset............unless they change my flight home to the next day, of course!

Good Luck, Livia! Here's some pixie dust for you!

Yikes.. you guys are scaring me.. Livia, have you checked yet..I have my ticket already to fly our Delta Airlines, Delta Express which I hate, but they are pretty regular.. I am assuming the flight is booked because the TA had a heck of time trying to get us a seat.. so hopefully everything will go ok.. I need this break.. I think we all do..

Let's all keep checking in here.. make sure we all know when we are leaving and arriving..

I thank you all for the the good wishes and pixie dust! I am sure it will work out. And Pollyana me thinks: "At least the mess is with the return flight". I will be there on the morning of the 26th.

Marsha: the crazyest thing is that my ticket is issued and paid for! It seems to be another case of overbooking... As I am a frequent flyer, I can check my status on line. I don't believe you will have problems, though. You have very frequent flights to and from Boston. Delta cuts its flights to Rio quite drastically. From daily, now we have only three a week.

Barb: pixie dust to you too... in fact to all of our flights
