Delta Flight Change

[wdwfan26]

A nervous moment on our flights- just got an email from Delta (song) saying our return flight from MCO to LGA was changed from 8:30 pm to 4:30 pm- totally unacceptable!!! Lose 4 extra hours in disney- no way!! Delta gave us a full refund on our tickets and we booked on Continental out of Newark at 7:50 pm- only cost $30 more per ticket- How can Delta just change the flight time by 4 hours!!!!- Its all good now- we have a new flight to an airport closer to home anyway

I feel your pain!! They changed our return flight and now we have 38 minutes to get across the ATL airport!! And that's only if it's on time! My sister keeps telling me not to worry about it...if we have to stay overnight in ATL, we have to stay, but I just keep having nightmares about my luggage loaded with tons of Disney merchandise going round and round the baggage claim turnstile with no one to claim it!!

The funny thing is, when we booked the flights, we couldn't book our ATL to MCO on the earlier flight because it was 59 minutes from our first flight from MEM to ATL and Disney wasn't allowed to book them less than an hour apart (or at least that's what the CM told me).

1. If your flight number is changed to a different time and there is another flight to your liking, ask to be changed to that better flight. If you are rescheduled on another flight number and the original flight number still exists at about its same time, I think the airline has to give you back your original flight number if you wish.

2. Is there another, later, connecting flight out of Atlanta you can change to? The airline "orta" change you to that on your request, no more money changing hands.

We made our Song reservations from EWR (Newark) to MCO last January for Oct. Then for whatever reason, Song pulled out of Newark. We rebooked on Continental, but it's been a complete nightmare since. We've had to add days to get nonstop (an absolute must), and we've also had TWO time changes. And now, none of our itinerary shows up online. I just hope when we get to the airport on departure day, there's a seat for us!
