Always check your flight status even this far out

Most of you probably already do this and it is thank to you I thought to do it. We don't go 'til Nov. Told hubby better check for any flight changes. "Naw.. he says they'd let us know, I fly all the time. " I insisted (he had the confirm #).
Well low and behold - we went from direct to a one stop, seats not together, 7yro sitting at front by himself, and our 7pm flight home/last day to do a park changed to 2pm depart! We got it changed and all is okay but we will definitely keep an eye on it. (btw flying Delta)
And...I only said I told you so a couple of times

United has let us know about flight changes via email, but I still check periodically just to be sure.

We had our non-stop changed to a layover back in June but at least the airline notified us a couple of months ahead of time, so we were able to switch both airlines and airports to get a non-stop to MCO. Glad you checked!

Now I got to worry about what planning I've done to become undone! Geez, by the time I come back, I want know what to do w/ myself at the computer, no planning. Probably go thru withdrawals. Now I remember why I was asking people if I could plan their trips for them after out last WDW visit.

I check twice a day now. We've had seat changes, multiple time changes, flight cancellation, and no notification except for the cancellation. We are on our second airline (AirTran). We've been traveling for years and have NEVER had all this turmoil. And what really makes me mad -- if I wanted to change something, they would charge me a fee to do that, but they can make any kind of changes they want to my plans. Just venting!

We now have lost a day on both ends, and I have a really bad feeling that the nonstop flights I have now will be cancelled when it gets even closer. Don't know if my blood pressure can take all this.

Dorothy, waiting in Kansas for the other shoe to drop.

It's good advice - I've been checking occasionally just to be on the safe side.

Thanks so much for the heads up. I've never bothered checking on my airline flight's status before but I certainly will be doing that now. Thanks again!

I booked our flight for Dec way back in Jan. After multiple changes, Midwest canceled out flight back and changed us to a connecting flight. They refunded our money. Now it looks like we are driving from MO. I'm not even going to look at flight again until Oct or Nov when hopefully things will have settled down and I know who is still in business.
