Winter weather can be very difficult to deal with when flying. I am surprised it doesn't happen to the team more often.
A week from today I will be flying out of Hartford to Cancun so weather better be "nice". At least I have a direct flight. My sister, bless her, doesn't have the luxury of a direct flight so has to fly from Omaha to Denver then Dallas then finally to Cancun. She has twice the opportunity for bad weather to delay her travel.
Coming back....I don't care, let there be a blizzard in Connecticut. I can think of worse things than not being able to fly home to winter in Connecticut and be stuck in Cancun for another day or so
