Rare songbird1329 Posted January 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 2, 2014 My daughter and her boyfriend are supposed to fly from NY to Orlando this weekend for a WDW/Disney cruise vacation. Only problem is, her boyfriend is in Israel right now. He's supposed to fly home to Newark tonight. Yes, during the blizzard. My daughter has been on the phone with the airlines, with Disney, with the trip insurance folks, etc. As of right now, El Al is telling her the flight will take off at midnight tonight NY time, and will arrive in Newark tomorrow afternoon, after the snow storm is over. Back up plan is for him to fly to Orlando and meet her. fingers crossed that this trip happens, she's been looking forward to it for a long time.

Rare Scrapnana Posted January 3, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'm glad they got trip insurance. Hope everything works out and they don't miss their vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare songbird1329 Posted January 5, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted January 5, 2014 So he made it back from Tel Aviv. Now they are stuck at JFK. Delays. There was a minor accident, plane skidded off the runway and the airport was closed for two hours. Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
