So I cancelled both SXM-JFK flights (one each for me and Mrs 4D4) last week after they became SXM-MIA-JFK. Then I applied for refunds (why on God's green earth do I have to *apply* for a &%$# refund when they are no longer offering the product I bought?). Today, five days later, the refund for my ticket is approved (how can I ever thank you, AA?) but Mrs 4D4's ticket is still under review. I wonder when/if they'll render their verdict on the other ticket?

...and we trust our lives to the company...

Anyway, not sure what I'll do with my flight down without a return trip, but I'm sure there will be more choices toward February.
