Winter storm Luna hits Northeast, cancels flights
A winter storm, dubbed, Luna, blustered into the Northeast Monday, icing roads and cancelling flights at Newark, LaGuardia, Dulles and Philadelphia. The storm was predicted to be short-lived but created Monday morning commute issues all along the Eastern seaboard. Warmer weather moving into the area is predicted to curtail any lasting Luna issues.
American Airlines has issued a bulletin as of 11:00 a.m. Monday offering customers rebooking/flight changes for waivered penalties.
Customers ticketed on American Airlines, American Eagle or AmericanConnection flights on Jan. 28 to, from, or through the cities listed below may change flights without penalty, have the ticket-reissue charge waived for one ticket change, and begin travel as late as Jan. 30 under American’s current travel waiver.
Here is the list of affected cities and airports:
- New York Kennedy (JFK)
- New York LaGuardia (LGA)
- Newark, N.J. (EWR)
- White Plains, N.Y. (HPN)
To change travel dates, customers should contact American Airlines Reservations at 1-800-433-7300 in the U.S. or Canada. Customers calling from outside the U.S. or Canada should check American’s Worldwide Reservations Numbers page on AA.com.
