Back in August (pre-Irma) we booked flights from Houston to St Thomas for July 4th for our BVI based sailing trip. The original schedule had us arriving in Atlanta at 9:11 (9:24 for my son flying in from San Antonio) and departing at 11:00, so there was plenty of time.

Currently Delta is running the single flight which departs Atlanta at 9:45, making our connections pretty dicey.

I realize this probably requires a crystal ball, but my question is should I change my flights (spending the night in Atlanta) to insure we make the 1 flight to St. Thomas, or should I assume that as things stabilize in St. Thomas, Delta will return to a 2 flight schedule or perhaps move the departure time of the ATL-STT leg to something we can make.
