LGA-ORD cancelled last night. Was rebooked on LGA/DCA/CVG/ORD departing at 7AM & landing at 2PM. CVG/ORD cancelled. Without notifying me, rebooked on LGA/MSP/ORD, departing at 2:30PM, landing at 8PM

Didn't learn of the 2nd rebooking until I got to LGA at 5:30AM - had called last night to fly standby on the 6:15AM. But to add salt to the wound, the phone agent added me to the list, but never activated it. Probably wouldn't have made it anyhow. But now I'm stuck in crappy Term A at LGA

Made it. And got upgraded. Maybe things are beginning to look up

Two people had the same seat, one was asked to take a later flight (there are no later flights...). I wonder if that was a result of overselling for me to have a confirmed seat 😱

Not sure. They stepped out of the plane. But I'm in ORD. At least my 12 hours of hell is behind me

Sorry to hear Op. Is that delta? Not sure how it works at PwC, at EY we have to book through travel and they have my "office" number as the contact number (I number I never use) so I have gotten Delta notifications there. Can you fly out of EWR?

Tried them all, flights out of NY are booked because of all the cancellations last night. However, finally reached a helpful phone agent. He received approval to oversell a flight for me. I may have a confirmed seat on a direct flight in an hour.

And yes, it is with Delta. United is in the same shape.

Good luck!!

Thank you!

Wow, feel so bad for you! You so deserve that upgrade!

Oh oh! Did they offer that person money?
