Flights out of MCO and Hurricane Rita

[mhingher]

I'm supposed to pick up my parents at the airport tomorrow in Newark, NJ. THey called today telling me that they called the Magical Express to schedule transportation tomorrow, and they were told that all flights out of Orlando for today and tomorrow have been cancelled b/c of Hurricane Rita. But when I went on the Continental website, it says only flights in Houston, Louisiana, Miami, Ft. Lauderdale and other Florida cities were affected, but not Orlando. I even checked the flight status and is said on schedule. Anyone know anything about this?

They just had a list of airport closings on the weather channel. Orlando was not mentioned. They only mentioned airports in TX & LA. Rita is nowhere near Orlando. The South Florida airports listed on the airline websites were for earlier this week (people can still have their tickets rescheduled).

I would tell your parents to call again... they got a dingbat... they exist even at Disney.
