I would go for the earlier flight, or even see if they will let you go standby on a Saturday flight. It's not ideal but I would hate to wait and hope it was going to be ok and then lose a day or more off of my vacation. If this storm is as big as they say it will be, flights have the potential to be backed up for a few days.
On the wi fi on the airplane to Orlando!
Can't decide what to do. The weather in DC will be fine on Sunday when we fly out...but not in Boston where our flight originates. The flight we are booked on leaves at 1:20 pm. The flight before that , which JetBlue will let us fly standby on leaves at 10am. Debating if we should try to do that. My hubby thinks we have a better chance of getting out of DC if we go earlier....what do you guys think?
Our flight is out of DC early Sat. morning. We're on JetBlue too . Are you flying out of Reagan? Its been years since I've been there, and I wasn't too fond of it the last time . I hope both of our flights are okay!
You should be fine. Sat looks way better than Sun. Yep we are Reagan too! Never been, but the pictures look pretty I am used to BWI, but if DCA gets us out on time (or early) it will be my new favorite airport !!
Ugh! Leaving Fri at 3 for an overnight at hotel for 7am flight Sat morning. AND of course everything is going to sh*t. Something is wrong with my 6 mth old washer (I HATE front loaders and miss my top loader SO much), 2 of 3 kids have colds, humidifier just broke, pretty sure something is up with my 10yr old Maltese (peeing and drinking non-stop), looking like terrible weather for our drive to DC Fri..I could go on I'm praying that the troubles stop as soon as we hit the magic
Yes, we fly out of Pittsburgh on Sunday morning! We are flying Southwest.
How funny if we are on the same flight together. It will be me (shortish, reddish brown hair), DH (not a morning person, will be grumpy with long hair), and DS (crew cut) who will be bouncing off of the walls.
How neat that there is so many of you on the same flight! I am almost jealous. However, I need to take my "Don't have a panic attack because you are 30,000 feet in the air" pill so I wouldn't be very chatty anyway I just mellow out and sleep if I can.
I can not believe there is ONE SLEEP LEFT!!!!
We have been so good about saving our money for the trip but today dh finally turned in his final assignment and wrote his last exam and my son brought home an almost straight A report card (one B in Art) so we are going out for dinner to celebrate
It almost feels like vacation has started already!!
Everybody!! It's a Small World After All... 98% positive that is also our scheduled flight! We're not typically morning people either and have a two-hour drive before the flight, but hopefully I'll be awake enough to keep an eye out for you. It'll be me (short, brown hair, obsessing over 'what did we forget?'), DSis (also short, blonde highlights), our mom (dark hair, friendly face) and dad (he'll be the one stretched out with his ballcap covering his eyes so he can nap). DSis would probably join your DS in bouncing off the walls.

I almost have that; no meds (yet) though. Any tiny turbulence in the air and I am death gripping DBF's hand. LOL
