Anyone flying out of RDU Sunday???


Jan 6, 2017, 5:49 PM

Should be ok Sunday I would think. Hopefully the roads arent too bad...

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yup, 4pm.....


Jan 6, 2017, 6:18 PM

I'm not worried about the roads, I'm worried about the runways. According to a co-worker who was in cargo logistics for 15 years, they should have it good to go by then. Revenue drives everything. I take some comfort in that.

Runways should be fine, they have enough time to get them cleared from Mid-day sat to Sunday.

The secondary roads could be a problem, but he!! Ill walk to get there.

Heck, I can pick up everyone in the Triangle area and transport you RDU...in exchange for some reaosnably priced tickets :). Good luck and Go Tigers!

Really hoping I can get a better deal on tickets tomorrow or Sunday...maybe even Monday am. Have a broker friend in Atlanta and he's telling me prices aren't expected to move much over the next 24 hrs. I hope he's wrong!

Re: Anyone flying out of RDU Sunday???


Jan 7, 2017, 7:30 PM

Apparently things aren't that great - Southwest flights are getting cancelled:

https://www.southwest.com/air/flight-status/results.html?originationAirportCode=RDU&destinationAirportCode=TPA&departureDate=2017-01-08&flightNumber=

It's a long drive from Raleigh to Tampa, but nothing will stop this Clemson Grad from making this trip. If anyone has any updates, alternatives, please let me (and the group) know.

WHat flight are you on?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

4:15PM Flight 2478 RDU to TAMPA is still showing on time


Jan 7, 2017, 7:42 PM

Those of you with earlier flights might want to call and see if there's space available on this flight. I'm watching this very closely b/c if it's (man, I hope not) cancelled, i'm hitting the road early AM tomorrow. If anyone talks to SWA about switching to the 2478 and they tell you anything, please share with the group.

Many thanks - this is only adding to the anxiety!

Re: 4:15PM Flight 2478 RDU to TAMPA is still showing on time


Jan 7, 2017, 7:44 PM

Well I'm booked on 2 flights the 8PM SW to Tampa and the 8:58AM on Delta....I've got 2 shots now...How the heck can SW not be flying I know its cold but they have had HOURS to get the runways clear.

Re: 4:15PM Flight 2478 RDU to TAMPA is still showing on time


Jan 7, 2017, 7:47 PM

Was thinking the same thing about clearing the runway. SWA is showing several other later (> 4:15PM) as on time, but not sure about availability. Dang mother nature and the ticket brokers are doing everything possible to stand in the way of a trip to the Natty! Won't happen, not gonna happen, we'll be there. Hope y'all are too - good luck!

UPDATE: Southwest Flights on 1/8/17 out of RDU


Jan 7, 2017, 10:12 PM

ALL have been cancelled:

https://www.southwest.com/air/flight-status/results.html?departureDate=2017-01-08&destinationAirportCode=TPA&flightNumber=&originationAirportCode=RDU

Better start making back up plans or like me put the gear in the truck and head south (tomorrow, of course).

Re: UPDATE: Southwest Flights on 1/8/17 out of RDU


Jan 7, 2017, 10:42 PM

Yup, packing up and heading out early in the am. My Brother drove up from Camden SC. Sucks worse for him, but we are still driving to Tampa in the am.

I was on the 8pm out of RDU that was canceled. I just booked one way flights on Allegiant Air out of Greensboro. Departs GSO at 7:25pm and arrives at St. Pete/Clearwater at 9:13pm. Paid approx. $100 each. GSO to PIE.

I was flying out of Atlanta yesterday....our flight was canceled.....we hopped in the car and got here at 6 pm last night. Long drive for my folks but well worth it.
