    We have seats on the charter and I don't know if it's a flight crew and airplane from a major airline or anything at all other than they will email us when the departure time on Friday morning is set.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    I would guess sun country as that is what they have had for the past few years. I'm guessing charter flights are attractive from a revenue perspective so I would guess it will go. I looked yesterday to cancel my AA flight and switch to the charter but it was already sold out.

    well, hoping somehow my flight doesn't get cancelled. Will be interesting to see what happens tomorrow.

    Flying AA Thursday morning.

    It’s some ex Northwest Airline pilots flying a C-47 that were let go for various reasons like landing at the wrong airport, flying past the airport, slightly violating the bottle to throttle rules, etc. They are vaxxed and willing to work.

    Plausible, but they are more likely to get to Texas than AA this week. They may land at Austin, but at least they will fly.
