I am starting to really panic as I have been tracking my Intercaribbean flight for June - the same flight has been canceled 90% of the schedule for the last two months.....UGH!!!! Which Intercaribbean flight? We have an 11am SJU-EIS on May 19.

Many carriers are cancelling the earlier flights in the day and accommodating passengers on the later flights in order to keep the planes full. I've heard of many delays but not of anyone left behind. Consider it a strategy to shorten your quarantine by a few hours!

Thanks everyone ~ and sorry but 5/12 was my old travel date. I am now Friday 5/14 which I hope doesn't complicate things as it is a busier travel day. (Jason...any comments ??) My intention is to book on the same ticket. Ratman's Wife ~ I completely agree. While the agent was helpful she had no comment about the close connection. I trust you all much more for this info! Thankful for you all and this forum Going to check United again. I miss traveling when you did not need a spreadsheet to keep track of all this!

If it’s on one ticket book it and go. If you miss the connection they will rebook you and you might be due compensation. Even if your not due compensation a polite email to their complaint department might get them to throw 10,000 miles at you. Don’t be afraid if they are rebooking you to request the next flight regardless of operating airline. They will auto rebook on their partners but you might get them to move you to a earlier flight on another carrier.

Jason - we are booked on a 5:55pm flight — at best it has only taken off four times in the last month.....and it is a daily scheduled flight. I'm sure they cancel it when there are no passengers. There is very limited traffic in and out right now. I'd guess the traffic is less than 10% of normal so that number of flights sounds about right.
