Text alert came over at 10:30 last night: flight cancelled. On hold for AA agent for 2 1/2 hours, then working with agent for another hour. Now flying out AA Sunday the 8th at 7:40am, landing in St. Paul, MN at 10:05am, then flying out Delta at 10:51am to land in Orlando at 3pm. Assuming our plane leaving Dallas actually takes off, and assuming it takes off on time, that barely meets the MSP airport's minimum connection time.
We called and since our entire flight is booked through AA, our luggage will transfer to the new plane in MSP - we don't have to get it and re-check it.
Of course if our plane leaves Dallas and is delayed we're screwed on the connection, but booking another flight out of MSP will be easier than trying to get out of Dallas. We're trying to mentally prepare for our Dallas flight getting cancelled again.
Going to drive to a hotel near the airport tonight, and take the shuttle to the airport in the morning from the Parking Spot next to the hotel. If our flight is cancelled we will try standby, barter, whatever we need to do to get on another flight that will actually leave DFW.
